At first I thought there was a malformity to the back of this mallard hen's head. Now, I understand that this bird is called a "tufted" mallard duck. Maybe a species variant, not really sure. What I do know is that she has one crazy hair-do! Almost like a 1950's style bee hive. She was very friendly, practically tame, and swam right up to me as I was laying on the bank photographing the farther away wood ducks. Thought that you all might enjoy this shot, and the hair!
Thanks for stopping by !

Situated in a picturesque valley, surrounded by old houses and with an interesting set of swimming pools carved on the rock, from the
1950’s, Azenhas do Mar Beach is one of the most appreciated beaches in this area, although its sandy area is no bigger than
30 meters.
Over the Beach, on the high cliffs that surround this beach and its environs is situated a wonderful viewpoint, usually quite frequented
all year round due to its astonishing landscape, and also often used for sport fishing.

"Shisen-dō (詩仙堂) is a Buddhist temple of the Sōtō Zen sect in Sakyō-ku, Kyoto, Japan. It is registered as a historic site of Japan. It stands on the grounds of its founder, the Edo period intellectual Ishikawa Jōzan (1583–1672), who established the temple in 1641.
A room in the main temple displays portraits of thirty-six Chinese poets. The selection of the poets was based on the opinion of Hayashi Razan. The portraits were executed by Kanō Tan'yū. This and some other parts of the building date to the time of Ishikawa Jōzan.
The temple's gardens are considered masterworks of Japanese gardens. One of them includes a device called a sōzu, a type of shishi-odoshi designed to scare away wild animals such as deer by making a loud noise. Water trickles into a bamboo tube, and when it reaches a certain level, it upsets the balance of the tube. The tube tips over on a pivot, discharging the water, and turns upright, striking a rock and emitting a loud clapping noise." (Wikipedia)
