Mallards on the lake [ENG-FR]
| Here are today enchanting snapshots of ducks I have taken on the lake Annecy, France. | Voici aujourd'hui d'enchanteurs clichés de canards que j'ai pris sur le lac d'Annecy en Haute-Savoie |
|---|---|
| I'll take you on a journey through translucent water and water birds basking in the warm winter sun ... 😊 | Je vais vous faire un peu voyager au fil d'une eau translucide et d'oiseaux aquatiques se prélassant au doux soleil d'hiver...😊 |
| These ducks are rather common since they are mallards, | Ces canards sont plutôt communs puisqu'il s'agit des colverts |
|---|---|
| here is the female with her pretty beige plumage spotted with brown ... I find her rather graceful, even if she is not blessed with the pretty colorful head feather of her darling duck ... 😉 | voici ici la femelle avec son joli plumage beige tacheté de brun...je la trouve plutôt gracieuse, même si elle n'a pas la belle tête colorée de son canard chéri ... 😉 |
| So here is now the male, | donc voici le mâle |
|---|---|
| recognizable by his beautiful green glossy head and his white collar | reconnaissable à sa belle tête verte et un collier blanc. |
| It is in fact his nuptial plumage, which he then loses with the approach of summer in favor of a more discreet and dull plumage which is called the eclipse plumage | Il s'agit en fait de son plumage nuptial, qu'il perd ensuite à l'approche de l'été au profit d'un plumage plus discret et plus terne qu'on appelle le plumage eclipse |
| The romantic stroll alone does not last long ... | La balade romantique en tête à tête ne dure pas longtemps.... |
|---|---|
| they are quickly joined by others , because mallards are generally in groups, they are rather social and are not afraid either to approach humans ... | ils sont rapidement rejoint par une troupe, car les canards colverts sont généralement en groupe, ils sont plutôt sociaux et n'ont pas peur non plus de s'approcher des humains... |
| In general we always see one or two coots approaching ducks | En général on voit toujours une ou deux foulques s'approcher des canards |
|---|---|
| here is one who tries to make some friends 😄 ... | en voici une qui essaie de s'immiscer... |
| If she does not interfere too much in the group he seems to tolerate it | Si elle n'interfère pas trop dans le groupe il semble la tolérer |
|---|---|
| but beware of her if she does anything that displeases our duck ... 😉 He will chase her in fury! | mais gare à elle si elle fait quoi que ce soit qui déplaise à notre canard...😉 Il la chassera en fureur ! |
| I like the coot's legs, it has long fingers that are only partially webbed, very different from that of the duck | J'aime bien les pattes de la foulque, elle a de longts doigts qui ne sont que partiellement palmés, très différents de celui du canard |
| here we are at the end of our walk on the water ... | nous voici à la fin de notre promenade sur l'eau... |
|---|---|
| I wish you a wonderful evening friends! | Je vous souhaite une merveilleuse soirée les amis ! |

Beautiful shots! Ducks are amazing birds, and they definitely have a mind of their own!
