Mallard Duck

Rocke and I enjoyed watching the Mallard ducks at the park.

When people think of a duck, many think of the mallard. The mallard, or anas platyrhynchos platyrhynchos, is a duck that is found all over North America. Commonly called greenheads (drakes), grey ducks (hens) and susies (hens), mallard ducks, with their trademark “quack” call, are one of the most recognized of all the ducks.
