White Mallard

Mallard ducks are probably the most common ducks in the UK, however, a white mallard is slightly more unusual.  I stopped for this mallard as the sunlight partially illuminated its white feathers and whilst preening, it emphasised the unique textures and shape of its feathers.

Teal

A shot of a Teal having a quiet moment, taken at Marsworth reservoir, Hertfordshire.  I like the way the colour of the water compliments his feathers.
