Observation details
One of the nicest photoshoots I've had in a long, long time was the leisurely time I spent with the Shelduck family from earlier; they made for a wonderfully serene sight as they bobbed about in the waters, the only real disturbance coming when the male decided to fly at me and land on the bank in front of me to test if that would stimulate something untoward on my part that would therein his family... given I just sat there and kept on photographing, he eventually lost interest and happily pottered back out to join his partner and tiny babies!!
