Muscovy duck courting a Swan
Переглядів 604 тис.9 років тому
A lone feral Muscovy drake on the local duck pond attempting to court the Cob (Male) Mute swan. The swan clearly does not appreciate his advances! Strangely enough he showed no interest in either the Pen (female swan) or the mallards. It's likely he's sexually frustrated since Drake Muscovies usually have several mates. As is often the case with feral muscovies, he is ruler of this duck pond.
