Don't know if that one duck is impressed or objecting! :) V

Wonderful shots. Those mallards are not in the least bit phased with that bird.

Terrific series Hank. All that space on the river and it almost lands on the mallards. I guess that's what it thinks about the ducks.

Lovely series! The landing shots of the graceful egret are amazing and the scolding from the mallard very amusing!

Nice shots Hank! Mallards look far too happy all the time to seriously intimidate!
