Nice to see how comfortable they are with each other. I almost get the feeling that 5he seagull is protecting the duck. Very nice lighting Yves. And I like the contrast between the colourful duck and white seagull on the reflective water.

Thanks Debra. Agree with you about the contrast between the birds.

Lovely capture of the reflections and the sense of camaraderie between these two birds and you. Very nice shot Yves.

Nice shot, Yves. I love the light and reflection and how it shows the different sizes of the birds.

Thanks Jane. it's nice to have your comment.

Description
My small hydro dam hike includes a long stop at the base of the dam. The site is prefered by many waterfowl. I use to observe their behaviour in that situation and of course do some shots that includes two or tree different kind of birds
