Ducks and green reflections

Image: © Rob Farrow Taken: 17 Jul 2013

There were a good number of ducks paddling about on the lakes in Oakmere Park. These are two of about twelve that were on its easternmost pool. The bright sun on this hot July day (30+°C) turned the water into an almost metallic shimmering green expanse. The ducks in the park were mostly mallards or mallard hybrids.
