Male Mallard Ducks moulting again (Anas platyrhynchos)

Sunny for a time before becoming overcast. I spent the hour or so, to get this one. Oh yea, I have to say sorry  for the blog yesterday, but I knocked my camera a bit, and it threw out the focus, silly me.

  26. Not everyone realizes that they're moulting. I met one guy who was scratching his head over the abundance of female mallards and the absence of male. It had never occurred to them that both genders were present. Lovely shots as always, Bob.
