Duck on a Rampage

Jealousy is an evil thing. There I was, hiding behind some reeds trying to photograph this female's colorful mate on the bank behind her and she just jumps in and throws a hissy fit. She continued this for many minutes before I finally gave up and moved on. Never did get a shot of the male but got over a dozen of her freaking out. Maybe that was the point of it all. "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille".
