Johnd Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I was surprised how few Mallard photos i have. I see tones of them all the time at the Ft worth Japanese Gardens. I guess i skip them over for the wood ducks and their resident GBH and hawks. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Althought not my highest quality Mallard photo, this is my favorite. I took this photo in the mountains between Los Alamos and Cuba, New Mexico, in a seemingly ephemeral puddle/pond (probably snowmelt) beside the gravel road, far from civilization. I don't usually see Mallards in such wild places, so I was pleasantly surprised to see what seems to be a "native." I also love the color of the iridescence on the head of this one. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor L. Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Hard to choose. As y'all said, they are pretty photogenic. The first is a lovely drake, one of my first photos this year. The second and third are the same bird, a female from a week or so ago. I found her at a nearby fish hatchery. She appeared either dazed or injured. I left for a few minutes, and when I returned she was gone. I love how you can see the algae growing on her feathers, creating that greenish reflection in the first shot of her. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
