If this doesn't illustrate the saying "Water off a Duck's Back", then I don't know what does. This is a Mallard Duck seen on Swanage Mill Pond during my first Swanage holiday.
This was reworked slightly in May 2021, prior to being offered for sale on Photo4Me.com. I did attempt a "sequel" during my visit to Abbotsbury Swannery in September 2023, but I felt the result was not as good as this photograph.
