First Mallard of the Season
Taken the same day as yesterday's post, while there were many Canada Geese about, I only saw two ducks, a Mallard couple. It was exciting as it has been so long since I have seen a duck. Winter is just too long.
I did get a couple of shots of the couple together but it was from a poor vantage point (a Canada Goose had the best seat in the house) Although I was happy to get them, none are worth posting. This of course is the male, walking quite cautiously on the ice. I imagine it would have been slippery. Light is pretty harsh, but I was not complaining as they were a welcomed sight. Tommorow, the female.
