some time a couple of ducks, mallard (Anas platyrhynchos, L. 1758) passes through the fountains of downtown, have left the natural aquatic environment and have specialized in controlled water bodies that exist in urban sources.
swim placidly in which is located in the Plaza del Obispo Cesareo, in the Plaza de las Mercedes and the source of the Plaza del Hierro. For those who do not know Ourense (a matter that ought to resolve as quickly as possible), these sources do not have a large water capacity, but its artistic and historical value is obvious, and the ducks fly in pairs from one another as they please.
is a quiet couple, so you see, do not need the swift waters of the Minho, or seem to want to share space with other ducks enabled them Posio Botanical Garden or Park Barbaño.
As I commented professional a taxi stop is located in the plaza, make friends with them and the drivers have fun watching the adventures of this couple while waiting for potential customers. They provide some biscuits or bread to the ducks eat with relish, this, along with bird feeders available in the parks and what they get from constant pricking in the gardens of small annelids and snails supplement their diet.
are not as elusive as they usually are individuals of this species, and females, mostly (which is a tad more daring), comes with bow feature that make the birds to look at you, drives his little eyes in you hoping that you provide a special treat as payments to the observation that sympathetic beauty.
Again the city, we discover unique inhabitants.
