Ducks Swans Flowers - and a Snake!

I visited Barnes on a day with excellent light. The mating season was in full swing, and more as there were several broods of Mallard Ducklings to be seen. There was also plenty of blossom and the Marsh Marigolds were adding their distinctive colour to the centre's many pools.
(Note that there is a sequence to the order of the photos of the White Faced ducks, however this isn't followed here as photos are presented in random order).
