Field Notes

Description:

I think these are a type of Domestic duck that have taken up residence at a restaurant that has converted a small swimming pool into a pond. I was so busy taking head shots that I completely forgot to take a full body shot for identification, sorry.

These look like Rouen Mallards, probably with Pekin somewhere in their bloodline.
