    'My Favourite!

    Hi all, just had to share my Hybrid with you, I've had the pleasure of its company every day for over a month during the lockdown. Some days it will just come in and feed but sometimes I'm lucky and it has a preen on the fence or stick outside the kitchen window. It mostly says with its S/C...

    I know I look strange, but I am told I am a Mallard

    We must have some of the most promiscuous ducks alive on our little lake here in Nashville. This post is in addition to the three I posted yesterday. All seem to be hybrids.

  12. Canvasback-Mallard?

    Canvasback-Mallard?

    I found this bird hanging out with a flock of Mallards in a cove at the local park. I knew there was something odd about it, but chalked it up to my ignorance. I've heard of hybrid ducks, and I wonder if I haven't found one? f6.3 1/500 ISO 200

    Hybrid TuftedxPochard?

It largely matches the accepted hybrid form of Tufted drakexPochard duck but for the very high brown dome and green on face. I wonder whether it is a second...
