Great Looking Mallard

I spotted this male Mallard slowing paddling around Green Lake a few days ago and took this quick shot. I've been consuming too much chocolate again so I'm posting early because I cannot sleep :). Thanks for all of your views and comments. They are always appreciated.

Do you think chocolate causes sleeplessness? I thought it was good - well good for the soul, anyway! Nice crisp image here and super colour!

@maggiemae Chocolate has caffeine which affects my nervous system :). I eat 70% dark chocolate which I think has more of punch.
