Hi, I took this picture today in Northern Virginia.
The male duck's head pattern seems interesting -- this was taken in the late afternoon, and the setting sun cast a warm tone. But still, you can see the two shades (green and purplish-red) of color in its head. I don't see any other traits that say it's not a mallard, so I assume it is "just" a mallard?
Thanks,
Howard
