Yes, second that .Nice one of the mallard 'sitting up' with outspread wings.  Are they Canada geese  ? I'll check out my book later - they have a white ring on the throat ,I see.

Cheers John. I missed a trick with it and cut it off at the neck in the reflection... however, my excuse is, it moved, I swung up the camera and shot... hindsight is such a wonderful thing. I do believe they are Canada geese.
