A brilliant eye-level close-up of this curly-tailed beauty with a black head. A color combination that I have never seen with a Mallard hybrid. TFS!!!!!

You really are finding some weird and wonderful plumages among these Mallards on that pond, aren't you.

Another great image Blue - well spotted.
