Field Notes

Description:

This female mallard stood and called to me demanding that I take her picture. As soon as she saw the camera come out, she flew into the water and swam off. It has been like this with the mallards for days.

Habitat:

Spotted in the tropical south, FL gulf coast.

Reference Links:

Anas platyrhynchos Linnaeus 1758, Mallard
