Mallard Hybrid Portrait

Huntley Meadows Park - Alexandria, Virginia
April 30th, 2022
This was my first encounter with a duck hybrid. After talking to some photographer friends, I was told this is a hybrid of a American Black Duck and a Mallard Duck. I watched this mating pair and their ducklings for a while. They were so unique looking and fun to watch. I got down low on my belly and was able to capture this image.

I am in my 50's and happily married with 5 daughters from our blended family. I became interested in photography just a few short years ago, much later in life than many but my passion is strong. I started out experimenting with scenic mountain shots, landscapes, flowers and anything nature as being outside is where I am happiest.
