This pair of Mallards appear contented and enjoying the morning sun as I was. I have a lot of stuff in background in this shot but I think it shows the habitat and environment in which these ducks live...

Wonderful image Gerry. Love the reflection in the water and the way the ducks said "cheese" (in their own way) to you. Regards, Cornelius

Great sheen on the ducks and on the water - this is such a vibrant shot and I agree the busy background is just right, showing their natural habitat.
They look very well fed and quite large birds.

My mallards send a 'quack' to your mallards :)

Trust me Gerry the background is fine
Notice how they've both pulled their necks back, and her ladyship has dropped her head ? Body language says so much !!
Anymore more ducks to come ? ain't they great. :d

"Look, he's back again. I'll meet you in the rushes a tad later." In Mallard language quack, quack quack, queek,queek, quack. Very nice, I was beginning to wonder if they had learned to walk. You have really captured them nicely. Like I said before, you need to send some of these to Ducks Unlimited. They would totally enjoy them.
