Description
I simply cannot resist ducks. Who can?? I found this shot particularly adorable. You just have to love the male mallard duck standing guard over the female mallard ducks. You can tell that he takes his job very seriously, especially since his bright reddish brown chest is protruding out so far over his feet with his neck casually relaxing back toward his tail. He is sending a strong message to all the other male mallard ducks! These ducks are located in the pond inside the Boston Public Garden. We visit Boston each Memorial Day to see the display of the American Flags. But we also take our time to see all the ducks, geese and the special swans inside the park too. It is an overall great way to spend a day!
