A mallard was posing on my favourite log:
And on the canal a narrowboat, Rhapsody, passed as I was walking to town (cat food!).
Think it's a hire boat: I asked how far they'd come: "Not sure." came the reply in a transatlantic accent.

Back on the pond the "bottom" grebe pair were maintaining their distance from the bank, so no pics of the young (damnit).
The "top" grebe was hunting though.
It's a toss up but I think they can move faster under water than on the surface.
The colour's real it's the greenery on the far bank reflected.
Just to finish, a pair of coot chicks
