Mallard, on reflection

Rawcliffe Lake pays home to quite a mix of birds, and at the moment there seem to be quite a few mallards.

This male mallard was heading straight for me, but I'm not sure if his expression is friendly of hostile. Perhaps he was still trying to assess if I have food to give him!

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

The mallard might be a common everyday water bird, but the male is an attractive colourful bird.
