Mallard Duck Chick


 Oh they do look cute at this stage in life. This Mallard Duck Chick  was swimming across the lake at Ferrymoor Flash. I love the dark stripe behind his eye. There are many families of these birds on the lake now. His head reflecting in the water and the ripples being caused as he dashes around with several others of his family brings this photo to life.
