Patriarch

Yesterday, I came upon the whole family of mallard ducks, and this is the father, distanced from the mother and ducklings. I've never photographed a duck! I've looked for ducks, but they have sufficiently ducked from me at all times. I usually end up with a goose. So finally, duck, duck, duck, duck. Sorry, more to come. Just ignore me. I'm going to put them ahead too because I'm about to take a "band trip" as chaperone. Madness May begins tomorrow! :)
What a nice little Mallard.

Nicely positioned so his head is entirely framed by the body.
