Canard colvert (Mallard)

Anse-à-Vaudreuil

2/2 Display: le mâle s'étire la tête puis l'arrondit en émettant un sifflement

First time to witness the behavior of a group of male mallards.
Don't know if it is in response to the female "laying low" behind.
They emit a kind of whistling noise after stretching the head high up
and then curving it into a ball (see previous picture).

Nikon D7100
1/1000s f/6.3 at 300.0mm iso320 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
