Mallard Moments

[Olybirder]

I tend to take Mallards for granted but I find it hard to resist photographing their delightful ducklings. This splendid little family was crossing the path at Strumpshaw in the dappled afternoon sunlight. Later on a female and her three offspring were supping loudly on the weed on the surface of a pool. The late, low sunshine was producing some very strange effects on the plant life on the surface of the water.

Lovely to see the ducklings finding their way.

I know I've said this before Ron, but I just can't resist ducks.
I would have had to take the family shot too, and the second is really unusual.
Good stuff.

I agree, the ducklings are so cute. It's impossible to not photograph them.

Lovely.
