Ducks in visible, infrared and simulated bee vision photography

Today about some duck shots I took on my trip to California, shot at Shoreline Park in Mountain Vew, CA in visible light, infrared as well as in simulated bee vision using my XBV6 filter. Lens was my CERCO 94mm quartz fluorite lens. Light source was sun. All shots were done at f8.
