Mallard

Ensley, Shelby Co TN

What at 1st glance looks like a domestic duck, is an adult male leucistic Mallard. Leucistic birds are scarce, with this one being more unusual in being a male. The speculum is just visible on the folded wing, as is the slightly darker head and neck. These are really sharp birds.
