Re: Mandarin Duck
Thanks Alan
There is a pond in the New Forest where there are a good few of them, both male and female and once i remember they were a bit of a nuisence in coming too near where i had set up a feeding station for small birds

Re: Mandarin Duck
Very nice shots Stan. I may have used a bit of fill flash to put a catch light in the eye of the first image.
