Well he is an old bossy-boots JJ - he's not used to being thwarted LOL

That's a great picture you've taken of this Mallard.... excellent work my friend.
 
You have caught his colours and iridescence so well, JJ.
 
He taught he could hide in the grass, JJ, but I suspect that beautiful green sheen gave him away.

Splendid shot!

Lol, now this its character. Such an aristocratic looking drake and yet it is willing to stick its bill in the mud (lol). Absolutely brilliant JJ!

Caught in the act, eh? Just couldn't leave that chocolate pudding for later ;)
