A coot or two and the mandatory mallards. All w/a77 & 70400G wide open at 400mm, handheld and kneeling. Coot shots cropped 50% (they keep their distance if they see you) and the mallards just cropped for composition (they could care less how close you are)

Love that grey heron shot. For some reason I get an image of Ralph Macchio standing on a post.
