Stop that!!! (Mareca penelope)

This lady Wigeon was having a quiet sip of water when a male Mallard "buzzed" her and spash-landed right in front of her. She was not amused. But I have to admit, I was ;)

Busy day ahead. I'll catch up browsing when I'm done with the pruning and raking in the garden.
