Windsor: scavenging swans get close to each other
A family is throwing bread to the swans just here, and they are all vying for a piece of the action, leaving barely any water in sight.

The neck of a mallard can just be seen towards the top-left corner; a couple of ducks were squeezed within the swans, often getting pushed under the water.

See SU9677 : Windsor: swans on the Thames for the wider view.
