Valentine's day

This week I walked down to one of my favorite spots on the Mall, Constitution Gardens. I love it there because it's so serene, and not too many people seem to visit there. This week the lake was full of all sorts of water fowl. But what I found most interesting is that all the mallards were paired up. I'm not sure if it's mating season, or if they always hang out in pairs, but I thought it was kinda romantic, so here you go... the 4 couples that let me photograph them (some flew away):





Love is in the air! Happy Valentine's day!
