Chinese people love Mandarin Duck (Yuan-Yang in Chinese) for a long time. In tradition Chinese lore, Mandarin Duck symbolizes wedded bliss and fidelity. We have known Yuan-Yang for years. However, we had never been able to see a live and close-up one until 22nd March 2008 when we visited the Philadelphia Zoo. They have a few of them in about 10 feet away from us. Also, we had the telephoto lens, 70-300mm, with us. The result was that we were able to have perfect views of these beautiful ducks.
