The two different ducks seem to be resting at the edge of the water, they both appear to be well fed! It's nice to see the two different types of ducks together. Well captured with good focus, the image is clear, their colors and tones appear natural. I like the reflection too. Well composed and presented!

Comment from Charlie Newman
Nice placement in the frame for this "Mallard" couple showing off their colors and the differentiation between their plumage. Colors are natural, focus is sharp, clarity and sharpness are well done.

Comment from supergold
a strange looking mallard hybrid; I wonder who was the other bird; we have a lit of mallard ducks and other ducks but never seen such a hybrid;

Fred,
Merci beaucoup mille fois for your complementary review. I will ask Niall Hatch of Birdwatch Ireland if he can identify the duck hybrid.
