    Yep, they are fun to watch. Didn't have time to take my camera down to the river Pang where I was working last week, there was a Duck with four ducklings.

    I love mallards. They never fail to amuse me , well the drakes that is.lol.
    I have some really funny shots of drakes that still make me giggle . One was printed in our local paper and some of the people I know here said they had to laugh.
    I'll have to show you

    Those are great - both beautiful and funny. I did have some nice pictures a few years ago of a couple having a barney over a female. I was at work when I saw the pair down in the square. Luckily I had my camera on me for some reason or another. They just ignored the people all passing around and just went for it. The female just wandered off

    The two above were . The duck grabbed the other ducks beak and then the one who's beak was grabbed is now tweeking the other one rear. I just can't help laughung at them. The thing is the female is a sterile duck, she naver lays eggs.

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    That onre yes and the green fiches . The little Egret was done with a point and sgiio and the mute swans were done with a goodmans G-shot digital video camers which dowsn't have a view finder , you have to use the screen. I prefer to use a view finder even thoughI'm left eye dominant.
