I just love this pic! The way the ducklings are huddled all around the mallard mom…almost as if they were looking for protection or guidence.

Featured in Alphabet Soup, Happy Haven, Nikon DSLR Users’ Group, and I Love Birds. Top 10 challenge winner in Alphabet Soup (letter D) Winter freeze has made less open water available in the marshes of the Fraser River Delta near Vancouver for ducks and other water fowl. This male mallard duck appears to be very much enjoying the small opening in the ice on a sunny late afternoon. Nikon D300, Nikkor f4 600 mm lens, ISO 400, f4, 1/800.
I was at the park today testing out the new camera and as soon as I stopped the car this flock of Ducks came waddling over. Just as I snapped the pic this one in the front goes and stands on one leg. Thought it was a cool shot. / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography

Mallard Duckling snapped yesterday at Arundel WWT in West Sussex, England. There are hundreds of ducklings milling around there at the moment at all stages of development – I was terribly tempted to bring some home after I fed a group of five and they began to follow me everywhere! Maybe I look like a mother duck!!! ;o) Canon EOS 5D Mk II with Canon EF 70-200mm L IS f/4 / ISO 125 / 1/500 / f4 / 200mm
a picture of one of our ducklings. I was holding him and trying to take pictures. Here this little guy was fascinated with the camera lens and came right up with his beak to the camera lens. The background came out almost white so I used a program and lightened all the background to white. / In EXTREME CLOSEUPS group / #2 in funny birds challenge in FUNNY KRITTERS GROUP

Recently at The University of York I came across fellow RedBubbler Darren Shaw (aka duck370) feeding the ducks. This Mallard drake had managed to get into Darren’s food bag to help himself. NB Since posting this Darren has posted three that are similar but better than mine! Give them a look.

Still in Roydon, Hertfordshire, in England I took a walk along the side of the canal and came across a female Mallard duck and her sweet little babies. She seemed so pleased to show them off to me. I hope you like the shot and thank you so much for viewing my work, please call back again soon.

It was an expression once used when refering to Gays. I think Kenneth Williams actually used it a couple of times – though I might be wrong. He had a wonderful (but wicked) sense of humour. Another of his favs was ‘we’ve all got your number ducky’. I couldn’t help myself – it was the pink and the ducks! I hope no-one’s offended though – bm me if so and I’ll change the title to something else….. It’s a jiggered infrared btw.
