Duck fight!

Ely is full of busy over the May Day bank holiday weekend. Today, we were heading off, along the river, to the Vegan and Vintage Fair.

There was an almighty agitation of anatines caused by a boy feeding them. While we watched, the duck with its wings up in the photo attacked the mallard drake in the photo. The mallard retaliated, and a fight ensued. Mr Pandammonium remarked that ducks aren’t really built for fighting each other, what with them not having pointy beaks and having no talons.

A crow in a nearby tree looked on.
