That's a beautiful shot. I don't think it's a wood duck. Looks to me like a Lesser Scaup. Here's a link to a photo of one. What do you think....a match?

I really think the 4/3rds system excels at this kind of shot, not so sure it's an E-3 thing. My E-510 would have delivered an identical shot had it been used here. I also think the Zuiko 70-300mm is one of the best lenses one can own for sharp images. It's not the best system for high ISO shots though, I can comfortably go to 800 though some say 1600 is decent, I tend to disagree.

Definitely a lesser scaup. Commonly known as a "bluebill".
