Just Out Here Floating

We saw several Mallards in the Miami River this week. It has been a while since we have photographed any ducks.

Floating Through Life

It has been a while since we have photographed a Mallard. The female was there too.

I am really surprised how few of them we have seen this year.

All Alone

We don't usually see a Mallard all alone. Usually there is a pair. This one may not be healthy .. can't tell much from the photo.
