Duck art ? or an artistic duck

The antics of this bird was observed on one of my last walks round the Thacka reserve of 2013

Its beginning to get the picture

I think the answer is beginning to take shape.

A mallard




It surely enjoyed its bath, and created a little art.

  1. I love watching ducks bathe...all birds actually!! On my birding blog a couple of weeks ago, I had a series of Gadwall ducks and the female was bathing.

    Your images, Gordon, are super.
    Happy New Year to you.

  8. No one is really awake until they have had a brisk shower - and ducks are no exception!

    Hope all is well in The Lakes.

    Cheers and have a good New Year - Stewart M - Melbourne
