I never saw even one mallard, male or female, while I was visiting Oak Openings Metropark. Maybe they just don't like people with cameras.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Even without the mallards this is a beautiful image Jimbob. Nice lighting, colours and a good composition.

Beautiful composition. I like how the water curves to the right, leading the viewer's eye into the scene.

I can always count on a crisp, clear photo from you JimboB. You do great work. Looks good as it is gray, overcast and windy here. The deer stayed in bed this morning.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

Lovely shot Jim. I can't see how the mallards would have added to it in any way.

Nice to see your lake shots again, and so well done as usual. Those ducks sure don't like me when I have my camera.
