Another funny duck

[colincurry]

I took this today. It was a grey morning and the bird was across the other side of small lake/large pond. The basic colouring was a mottled pale grey. It sneaked beneath the overhanging branches and refused to come out and pose.

I can't find anything like it in my books; but imagine that it is probably a mallard mutant. I read the previous thread with interest, including the 'Manky Mallard' link, but couldn't see anything quite like this.

See what you think....

It is a Mallard type- female leucistic/domestic variant.

Thanks, Aeshna.

A good one to drop into the conversation around the pub; especially after a few pints.
