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.
Hi Bob...Good grief if these where any larger that duck would walk right out of my computer screen!! Great shot !! Simon and Garfunkel..good one..although I like Paul Simon on his own better!! Grace
Wouldn't you like to be a duck sometimes? I would - especially now in those hot summer days - ahhhh to spend them in cool water with head dips and cool feet! :-) Love your photographs Bob!

ReplyDeletegorgeous! love the top shot. :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic captures, Bob!

ReplyDeleteLovely close ups Bob. Great to see so much detail in a bird.
ReplyDeleteBob, I suspect this is Mrs Mallard. It is brownish.
ReplyDeleteWe birders know such things.
Beauty. Mallards are among my favourite people. ;)
ReplyDeleteThey look much like the females when they moult so much. Come the autumn their beautiful green feathers will be back.
Bob, great portraits!
ReplyDeletegeweldig hoe je een gewone eend tot een hele bijzondere kan maken.
ReplyDeleteGreat captures Bob!
