WILD DUCKS



Photos and videos by Carlos A. Mascaro
PS: These videos are experimentals and technologically they are not so good, specifically at the end of them.

  1. Oh Sonia...These are amazing! I have never seen anything like this "In Person"...How fabulous that Carlos was able to capture these Ducks....That you see so very many Wild Ducks right there where you live----well, that is just a miracle. Is that Flora Barking in the background on the first Video? (lol)
    I think these are wonderful...It doesn't matter about the end of them....I understand how hard it is to stop without it looking like the camera is all jerked around...lol!
    LOVE that you put these up, my dear, and the pictures are wonderful, too!

  2. These are beautiful videos ... I love the beauty of the outdoors. Up here we have geese that take of in flocks (or is it a gaggle of geese?) but not too many ducks.

  3. Sônia, os patos voando (são patos selvagens ou paturis?) um espetáculo à parte!
    Coisa linda de se ver.
    Beijo, menina

  4. Muito bonito! Ducks are lovely things, aren't they? Around here we don't get to see large flocks of ducks like that, but we do see them in the wetlands and on the lakes and ponds. Most of them have striking iridescent coloring.

    Big hugs. :)

  5. Sonia você sempre nos presenteando com imagens maravilhosas.
    É a natureza falando por sí.
    Incrível o desenho que eles formam ao alçar voô, parace uma dança.
    Um beijo prá você.

  7. Fantastic opportunity and Carlos made good use of it! The photos are very nice indeed, but especially the videos impressed me! (I could hear a very exited dog in the background.)

  8. Sonia! Que show! Adorei os videos, que abundância de patos, nunca vi nada igual, obrigada por nos mostrar esta maravilha!

  9. The dog barking in the background on the first Video was not Flora, as Naomi asked on comment. It was the dog of another person running around very excited with the noise of the ducks.

  10. These are so good. I love the one where the birds take flight right off the water

    Take care,

  14. Beautiful work! I rarely see ducks in the wild where I live, and this was marvelous to watch. What a beautiful place in the world you have!

  15. These are all such beautiful images, I can't select a favorite, I like them all. I grew up near a large river with many side arms and alluvial forests, and lots of wild birds, so these pictures are very special to me. Thank you! :-)

  16. Hi Sonia,

    I think the videos are very good! In both cases, the audio was great - the sound of the water and was that your puppy barking?

    Great photos. My goodness you have the best views.
