Mallard Ducks at Fountain City Duck Pond - Part 2

He is strutting his stuff. Showing off for the girls.

Remember these were early spring and he was looking for a mate.

Oh, maybe he is headed to her now (not me).

Aren't they a nice pair?

I saved my favorite to the last. I know he has the color, but she is so pretty.

Mallard Ducks at Fountain City Duck Pond

The Fountain City Duck Pond is a landmark in Knoxville.When giving directions in the area the question is always asked

"Before the duck pond, or after the duck pond?"

Back in early March of this year I visited the duck pond with camera in hand,

and did capture some photos worth keeping.

Notice the reflection in this one, he appears to have his bill open,

but then he also appears to have 3 heads.

Mallard Ducks at Lake Seminole Park

Thought to begin with these were both Mallards. I then thought the bottom photograph is a Mottled Duck. After going back to Lake Seminole Park and seeing all the ducks again I think they are both Mallards.

Mallards at Lake Seminole Park

I took these Mallard photographs in June at Seminole Park in Florida.

Does anybody know what duck these last 2 photographs are? Notice the dark bill.

They were not suppose to post right in the middle of my fall colors photos of the Smokies. I hit publish without changing the date and time. Sorry, for the fall color interruption. The beach photographs are suppose to be next week while I am at the beach. I am trying to get numerous post ready for while I am gone.
