2 Ducks at Lyme Park. Captured on the location of 'Pride and Prejudice', these humble birds are untouched by fame. |

I used to think this was a Bewick's Swan.... but it's not, it's a Whooper swan. Thanks to Colin Butters for pointing this out to me. |

Not a duck at all, but this Welsh Penguin can be considered a 'friend' of the duck.
The Welsh Mountain Zoo is well worth a visit, and now you can visit it on the internet too.
Lots of people love ducks in different ways, some to feed bread, some to photograph, and some to kill, pluck and devour. Who are we to judge? I've listed as many links as I know of...
