Ducks on the Canal

My friend M came over to visit today and while her husband and mine went off to enjoy a 'falconry' afternoon together we went off for a bimble round the shops in Leighton Buzzard, a leisurely lunch in Room 9 (my favourite café) and then to round it off, a stroll through the park and along the canal.
There were plenty of ducks as usual but in contrast to the mallard I photographed for my last blip I thought these cute chaps perched on top of one of the narrow boats made for quite a cheery blip.
