Mandarin!

[Kenneth Walker]

A sign of Spring. This chap in his full regalia, waiting to be noticed by one of the girl ducks. mandarins were introduced to the UK back in the 19th century....they promptly went feral.
Quite pleased with the shot....Leica 100-400mm on my Panasonic G9. A bit blurry on the wing feathers.
