Feels like it (the duck) needs a Taskmaster-related name... 🤔

My favourite kind of autumn day, bright and warm in the sun, tempered with a cool breeze. Leaves starting to turn and fall.
Happy autumn equinox!

It's self-seeded and not one of my usual cast of weeds/unintentional plants, but kind of pretty #gardeners #bloomscrolling
