Mallard show off

Last Saturday I had a little stroll near my summer cottage, as the weather was quite muggy and sunny. At Perajärv (the hindmost lake of the two lakes very close together) I saw a nice duck family, which gave me quite a show so I had to take a few shots. It is a bit unfortunate that only five ducklings have survived out of 12 and all of them being female - life's a bitch.
But here are the pictures that I took:
