Amazing behavioral shot, Karl. The mating pose is awesome, and a wonderful addition to this series.

His reward for all his hard work displaying like a crazy bird! At least he's not trying to drown her by holding her head under water, like I've seen some mallards do!

Terrific series, Karl (I started at the end and am working backwards). Carol's remark reminds me I once made a video of a pair of hoodies mating. She went under! They spun around quite a few times until she finally emerged. Terrible video but amazing to see. This looks relatively tame.

You really hit the jackpot with the Commoneyes. I have enjoyed all the images. Well done.
