Mallard [gräsand]
As we were nearby anyway, we decided to have a quick stop at Hornborgasjön even though it's not birdwatching season. Thanks to the heatwave and draught there is almost no water in the lake, which of course has affected the breeding. These mallards seem to be ok, though. Hornborgasjön on August 2, 2018.

Came upon these mallards in eclipse today. Or, rather, they came upon us, as we had a coffee break by the river they patrol for biscuits and bread, the young ones (there were at least three of them) still prefer the reed. Nordre älv, Kungälv, on September 24, 2016.

Not Only Flowers on Display at Kew Gardens
From the archive: When I visited London a couple of years ago, Kew Gardens was on top of my list. Not surprisingly, birds were all around. However, on this visit, I wasn't focusing the birds. A moorhen, looking for something to eat in the weeds. On June 15, 2013.
A coot, bringing straws to its nest in the pond wall.
A blond mallard, in the pond next to the fantastic victorian orangeries.
Of course, no garden of this size is complete without some peacocks. This one was resting in one of the beds close to the main entrance.

Some mallards, enjoying the late summer. The pond was once part of a Premonstratensian monastery, established in the 13th century and now only a ruin. The pond, however, was restored in 2013. Dragsmarks klosterdamm, Bokenäset, on August 23, 2015.
