You're welcome bonitin! :) I had taken over 40 of the whole action, it was amazing to see the expressions and how the younger male was subserviant to the older one. But he was protective of his female friend too! Nearly all of the pics came out well too, I had the advantage of sun but they were moving fast.

Must be nice to see the whole series! Like a Shakespearian love-saga in Duck style, lol!

Yes it was, lol, I had thought of putting them on a thread but was not sure if it was against the rules! I have a Collared Dove series too which was not quite as good as they were on a roof but not bad, and House Sparrows on the fence! I happened to be in the right place at the right time, lol, but I saw the ducks run past my window so grabbed the camera quick and pursued the chase!
