About	the flock apparently didn't like my arms flailing about overhead... but then it's kinda hard not to do that when your feet go out from underneath you on the ice... ;-)

Good stuff Bob!

Thanks Dave. I survived the ordeal... lol. I really should get some of those metal cleats that can be strapped to the soles of your boots for when I shoot out on the ice... ;-)

Hope you didn't end up in the water with them, Bob! Great shot, in spite of all that!

Thanks Alison. These are 'long-tailed ducks' (Clangula hyemalis), formerly known as 'Oldsquaws'. They're arctic breeders which overwinter here in increasingly greater numbers, due to an increase in zebra mussels which they use as a food source.

Great shot, so much action yet the detail and clarity of the shot is excellent, what are these birds.?? Alison
