Taken at Kingsbury Water park. These two were acting as a couple, the Tufted was much more nervous than the Mallard, and would wake her up with gentle pecking so they could move away from my threatening lens.

Cheers now

Wasn't there a catch phrase a few years back "we just want to be together" done in a brummie accent? Anyway that's the first thing I thought of when I saw this :smile:

Great shot!
