Mallard female quacking whilst ensconced on a sunny log

Female Mallard happily quacking whilst ensconced on a sunny log floating in a reed pond, her colouring blending perfectly with the colours of the dead tree. Mallards are the ancestor of most of todays breeds of domestic duck. Mallards, also known as Wild Ducks, live in wetlands throughout temperate and subtropical areas of the Americas, Europe, Asia and North Africa. Mallard males have a glossy green head whilst females have simpler brown-speckled plumage. Mallards occasionally interbreed with a number of closely related duck breeds and unusually, these produce offspring that are also able to breed.
