Yesterday I took my HD PENTAX-D FA 150-450mm F4.5-5.6 ED DC AW maxi lens out among the crowds of tourists on the Vltava River and photographed this beautiful, perfectly feathered duck. This species is not particularly common on the Vltava, at least I can't remember the last time I saw it. He was swimming with the mallards near the shore and was not shy at all, just strange. Pretty much all ducks except for the common mallards stay away from the shore on the river and don't swim to people.
