Beautiful capture Wendy. The colours are superb and the detail on the duck. Love the way her head is just turned for the photo.

Sureallyrealistic! and quite beautiful. Love the detail in the feathers. Haven't seen this bird before, I'll search out an identity.

Great detail Wendy. I like the light shining on the water behind and the way she is looking at camera.

Well I didn't do very well! but I did come across a site that said- quote "Note - a lot of people land on this page when trying to identify an unfamiliar duck which they think may be a hybrid. 9 times out of 10 the bird they are looking for is in fact a domestic variant of Mallard. The various domesticated forms of Mallard, or 'breeds', were originally obtained through human-controlled selective breeding of Mallards. Many look nothing like wild Mallards in plumage, structure or size (some are huge!) Poultry and waterfowl keepers' associations have come up with appearance standards to which any domestic duck must conform in order to be accepted as one of their named breeds, and any that do not conform to one or other breed are described as impure, or "cross-breeds". However pure breed or cross breed, they're all biologically Mallards, descended from wild Mallards, and have no genetic influence from any other species."

So unless someone knows and shares....I guess it's an unsolved  mystery! GREAT shot all the same! Smile

Well captured shot Wendy with good detail and colour.

Hi Fiona 

I am pretty sure this is an Egyptian goose. Thank you for all your research and information.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

Hi Edy

Sorry this is the same picture you commented on. For some reason I added it to my gallery for the second time. I was obviously busy and not paying attention Smile

Many Thanks for your second time around Smile

Wendy

What a marvellous capture, the water looks like time has stopped and her feathers look as if each one has been painted on, what gorgeous little goslings as well, see she still has her eye on you ;-D ... Carol

This is really nice, very graphical, looks like a painting.. I think you use a special treatment to have your photos with this aspect and so sharp, I don't know how you do that.. but the result is stunning..
