This is a picture of the pond at Objibway Nature Preserve. I have posted pictures before of this pond but posted this one to show where I have been getting pictures of these Mallards. If you look on right side of frame in center of picture one can see the ducks. These are the Mallards I have been posting. It is an intimate pond...maybe 30 yards wide with a 3 foot bank on left, not in picture. I come down through this reed covered bank with camera and tripod and set my camera and tripod on shore of pond and sit back on bank and observe and take pictures to my hearts delight. Although a few days back I slipped coming down bank and landed in 2 inches of muck, holding onto camera and tripod, almost falling in water...and out of corner of eye seen the ducks flying away as I scared them :))
