Up close and personal at Pitsford reservoir.

The Mallard is a Duck that we take for granted.

On a recent trip to Pitsford Reservoir I stopped off at the Causeway car park, an area used extensively by the general public to feed the gathered wildfowl, which gave excellent opportunities for close up images of the birds.

The variety of plumage on display really was interesting, for example I have never focused on the fact that some birds have white eyelids.
