It just seemed like kind of a duck day today. This female mallard was coming in for an icy landing with a few of her friends walking below. I was in the town of Delta, British Columbia, just south of Vancouver. (Good luck today Dad). Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 800, f/4.5 at 1/1000th of a second
SO interesting this pic this morning as we too have the same Mallards in South Africa and i have one particular pair in my garden who think they are allowed in my house ~ i posted pics on my face book page just last week!!
Thank you for sharing your photos
