Another difficult choice for me between the portrait of Mr Mallard and his full body photograph. The alternative image therefore in my 'odds and sods album'.
There's so much detail and texture in the feathers on his back, it seems as if I could just reach out and touch him. I can see why it was difficult to chose which Mr. Mallard photo to post here. Both are excellent images, Issi.
Nice close up Issi! :)
