Mandarins.......

There are a few of these striking ducks now, at Bushy park. Normally shy and retiring, staying out of trouble, around the edges of the ponds, especially at the present, as the park becomes more popular with the warmer weather. We found this pair in a quiet section of a woodland area, along a narrow strip of water running perpendicular, and close to a path, lying down afforded me some anonymity from the ducks. They were protected by bushes and overhanging trees, but very close. Slowly...... they drifted away, from the noise....... of the clattering shutter......

Mmmmmm.....Z6.....maybe......
