  4. Bob, these images are extraordinary! He just took a drink--his beak is wet in the last photo...I love the whole series--one gets a sense of movement and the passage of time on a beautiful summer day.

  6. Bob, I suspect this is Mrs Mallard. It is brownish.
    We birders know such things.

  7. Beauty. Mallards are among my favourite people. ;)

    They look much like the females when they moult so much. Come the autumn their beautiful green feathers will be back.
