    Perhaps number 3 chased the others away. Nice little snippets of duck life.

    Mallards must be one of the best-adapted species as they seem to appear everywhere on the planet, in salt or fresh water, cold or hot weather: just everywhere! Well, ok, there are a few exceptions.

    be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com

    I like ducks, but when we lived on a canal in Florida, they made such a mess on our sidewalks, it was impossible to keep them clean!

    We tend not to take much notice of the humble Mallard, though they are actually very interesting (and beautiful) birds.

    Interesting series of duck behavior. The stay or go is always the question.

    As a youngster, we loved to go duck watching and feeding on trips away from home. Ducks just seem to have a calming effect when one is around them.

    There must be a lot of good hunting opportunities as the tide recedes. Cute ducks, Bill!
