    Neat behavior shots. However, I didn't realize we were allowed to post this kind of stuff here. Isn't this a family site? :blush2: Great shots though.

    But, it IS about family. Do you see any nudity here?

    Here's one that I couldn't post last time (could only upload five pic at a time). This one was right after the...errr...action. Notice the hair on the back of the female duck?

    That's how it's done! My fiance lives on a large pond and there are TONS of muscovies there. It sure gets old watching ducks do it! Let me tell ya, that's not one female I envy!

    What caught my attention was that, at first, they were sitting in the water, facing each other, and moving their head straight up and down at the same time. Unlike this pair:

    The male was chasing the female all over the pond.
