The usual green/purple iridescent mallard color on neck was all over its body. Unfortunately, it disapeared shortly after I took this photo.
has anybody seen another green mallard?
have a look on feathersite.com there are a couple of breeds on there that are green/black/purple kind of colour - gorgeous I agree
