LOL That poor hen had a hard time balancing on one foot on that slick bouncing ice in the wind ! But she lasted longer than I expected before she fell. Cool vid. Thanks.

I think the female must have been hiding her wedding band. The male sure was displaying his proudly.
Thanks for sharing.

Yes, several times a week. I have seen a few adult mallards in the area, but no hatchlings in the area to date.
