Mallard Drake


Mallard Drake, originally uploaded by Hannibals Animals.

With not much of anything happening of the wild kind, I settled on getting the shine of this mallards head. He got vocal in the middle of the shoot, which made for a more interesting photo.

  1. Yes a nice shot, it's nice that he got vocal ;-) Not so easy to do with a snowy background

  6. Awh, he looks sleepy :) He is probably dreading the long migration.

  7. Beautiful picture. It's weird for me to see them in the snow. Tell them to come down to Florida.
