   I have taken quite a few photos of mallards, but none so cute as the two you have above. The way they're holding themselves in these photos is adorable. Nice post! :up:

   Catching swallows in a photo is harder than doing the same thing with butterflies :faint:
   Nice :up:

   Thanks Deb! The ducks were posing rather well (which isn't always the case).

   Great shots! My favorite is the one of the male mallard in the wildflowers!

   Maybe it has finally warmed up enough for water to be a good birdwatching spot again!

   Nice series! 🙂

    Adele, this was at a local 'village' pond, so quite sheltered (even ok in the drizzle as you can take photos from the car)

    Neil, thanks. I thought about cloning out the lighter streak that's emerging from the mallard's head (but was too lazy!)
