A doubled-crested cormorant making a very special salute to a female mallard duck crossing by. Perhaps they know each other or may be they are old friends of the Magog river (taken 2024 jul)

A great spot for old friends to socialize. A very nice moment captured of life on the Magog river. It makes me think about how calming a moment in nature like this can be. Great shot Yves.

Very good detail on both the birds, Yves. I love the mood of this image and the story it tells.
