Mandarin vs Mallard.

The wind was so strong today that I walked to the park as I was nervous about being blown off my bike!
Yesterday it was about swans, today it was ducks. This pair of Mandarin ducks have a nest in a tree next to the Heron Pond. The Mallard picked a fight, but the Mandarin male put up a great fight and saw the Mallard off. You can see the sequence here. Its worth a look if you have time- I love the last image - the victor!
Thank you all for your comments, stars and hearts yesterday. I am glad you enjoyed the saga of the swans! I will try to get back to each of you.
