These are pretty cool characters. Let me assume it was breezy the day you were photographing them. Either that or they are terribly unkept ... goes well with the loving of mud :) You can tell the female by the big mouth yakedy yak yaking ... I have been told that, at least among Mallards, the females are the only ones that speak :) Anyway, good news that you are back to normal. It does take awhile for your body to regroup after being sick. Hope the rest of the family is well.

Glad to hear you are doing better. These ducks are wonderful! I had never seen them before. In shape (if not in color) they remind me of Whistlers. A "Bird Bilabong!"
