Title: Tailgating
Post by: Chocky on April 29, 2017, 04:41:31 AM
Here is a nice little photo I took last summer
These little Mallards swam quite away along the estuary in this formation.
The male duck at the end crashed into the female in front of him so many times that she turned round and gave him a good pecking off for tailgating.
It was highly amusing to watch.

This bird finally chose to perch where I could get an unobstructed view for a picture. Unfortunately he closed his beak just as I was taking the photo.
It's the first time I see that red dot on the side of the beak.
