What a lovely image to get of this youngster Andy! I saw some whistling ducks in Australia and thought they were really attractive.

You've a wonderful picture of this one too - well done lad.

We don't have a picture of a youngster in The Opus, would you like to do it (let me know if you're not up to it}.
