    Reminds me of a visit to a British castle. Parking was inside the grounds, and there were two picnic areas. One close to the parking lot, one rather far away. Our (local) friends decided on a picnic spot at the far end, and I went all the way to the car to get the stuff.

    On my way to the car I saw a single family setting up their lunch on the picnic place next to the parking lot and grumbled why we could not have used this spot instead.

    On my way back, I learned why. The family with the little kids were sitting on the blanket, besieged by the duck Mafia from the nearby pond who demanded their share.

    Looks like a female wood duck. They’re usually pretty shy.

    Edit: Actually might be a mandarin duck judging by the male in the background. Don’t have those locally so I’m not real familiar.
