Mean green sheen

There's a creek not too far from our house which is a haven for ducks and geese. Here's one handsome guy who sort of posed for me before sliding down the bank into the water.

Another avian show-off! Hardly a surprise with this one though, as mallard drakes just love to display their shiny helmets … er.

If I was that kind of bird, I'd be very impressed!

Yes, Dive, this drake does seem proud, even haughty, about his shiny helmet :)

Shell: And he's impressed with himself, as well as being impressive to photograph. what kind of ducks do you have in your part of the world?
