Ringed Teal

I had an unpleasant experience whilst photographing this little duck. I don't normal feed the ducks ( it causes a big rush and you can't single a bird out) but I noticed that this particular duck wouldn't come anywhere near unless there was some food on offer, so I bought a £1 bag of duck food. Whilst taking some shots, I overheard a child say that she wanted some bird food. I then heard the parent quietly say, 'Get that one.' The next thing I know my bag of food was gone. A little out of focus hand intruded on one of my photographs!


Do keep hold of your camera gear, folks.
