There is a slight chance that she accepted the ring under false pretenses. But call me a romantic, I think these ducks will go far together. Or at least migrate some distance away before the worst of the winter weather arrives. For the moment they enjoy a moment of reflection together.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

I am supposing that the male Mallard made a special trip to Kaye Jewelers to get that ring! Smart guy! Females are so persnickety!...beautiful shot. I love the reflections.

Looks like they found a little bit of water to look themselves over in. Super reflections.

The mallard is probably saying " you'll get used to my green head." A stupendous presentation, Wendell.

He tries anything on that ice...and the heat will melt it!...☺

Looks like he's been 'shrugged' off Wendell!....I 'used' to know that feeling!.......

The reflections on this one are super Wendell - great shot and I like the way you've got the subjects to the side - not centered.

Mirror perfect composition and reflections. What a beautiful couple and love is beautiful. Now are they standing on a thin layer of ice covered with water, that's what it looks like to me.
