Mallard in the Pond 🦆

#### Hello fellow bird lovers. Today I want to share images of this little friend that came to me in the park, I have always found these ducks very beautiful, here in Europe they are very common but in my country Venezuela, I think I never saw them, at least not that I remember. ------ Something curious I heard about this little animal, which by the way its common name is mallard duck, in a National Geographic documentary, is that they can sleep with one eye open, and this because they sleep with one side of the brain while the other is awake! Crazy right? ----- ### Imagine if we could do the same? I think we would get rid of many traffic accidents! 😄  ------ #### This little guy approached me with curiosity, at first I thought he was going to attack me, I have already been attacked by other ducks, 🤣 but this one, I think he was waiting for me to give him food, although it is forbidden to feed them I have seen people throwing food into the pond. -------  #### When he realized he wasn't going to get any food from me, he made a face at me and went off to swim with his buddies! 😆 ------  #### Usually they are always in this pond in the park, these days the water has been very dirty, but I have seen that in other places they are already doing maintenance to the fountains and ponds, I hope to have better pictures of this pond in a next opportunity. -----------    ☆☆☆
