TQ1971 : Duck & ducklings ripple pink reflections

near to Ham, Richmond Upon Thames, Great Britain

Duck & ducklings ripple pink reflections
Duck & ducklings ripple pink reflections
This is in the Still Pond, Isabella Plantation, Richmond Park. The ducklings had been scurrying around on the ground by the pond, quite unafraid of the visitors and even pecking at a shoelace to see whether it was good to eat. When the duck collected them around her in the water ripples spread out from them, giving pink reflections of azaleas by the pond.
Another contributor kindly told me that these are Mandarin ducks - and I then found that I am not the first photographer to notice the combination of a duck making ripples reflecting azaleas here, see LinkExternal link .
