A mallard duck with a mainly bright grey body, dark brown neck, dark green head and a dark blue stripe on its wing stands with its side profile to the camera on orange legs in a softly rippled water body that reflects both the duck and a bright blue sky. In the middle at the bottom there is my copyright saying 'C. P. / All rights reserved. Do not reupload. Do not use with/for any kind of AI.'

Today's #BirdOfTheDay main theme by @robcrank68.bsky.social is #StandingInWater.

I kind of like the mood in this one, so it's my choice for this time.

Herpailurus yagouaroundi

Sleek, stealthy as a shadow, fast as a bullet — darts through forests, savannas, and scrublands of Central/South America.
Diurnal, agile, loves to climb, jump, swim. 13 vocal sounds. A skilled mid-level predator. #jaguarundi #photography #wildlifephototography
