We tend to label things in nature with “Exotic”, “Rare”, “Endangered” or Common. Since the Mallard is a duck that we see more often , accustomed to people ….. it is likely to be at more close distance.
But Common? I would think anything but that. The male has a bright emerald green head. It is strong and can fly at great distances when migrating. This is a female that has a beauty all of it’s own.
