taken in Cambridge..
Mallards are omnivores. They eat various seeds including corn, wheat, barley, bulrushes, wild rice, primrose, willow, seeds of water elm, oak, hackberry, trees of swamps or river bottoms. They will also eat mollusks, insects, small fish, tadpoles, freshwater snails, fish eggs, and frogs. They usually feed at the surface of the water and are known as "dabbling ducks". They don't dive all the way under the water, but just tip their heads under to feed. |

Very nice close up of this male mallard duck. Good strong colours.
Hi Ritesh
Good photo of a male mallard duck. You have captured good detail even in the white areas. Well exposed in difficult lighting conditions. A catchlight in his eye. Well done.
