Description I must confess I'm deeply ashamed for the bad quality...
I tried to capture ducklings chasing insects, running over the water and jumping for the little flies.
This was a little bit harder than I expected though...
They are so extremely fast and even more unpredictable.
I love the pose, the moment here, if only it would have been a little bit better...
Oh well...one's got to have some challenges left...
