The first shot is a proper mallard drake. The second is a darned puzzle if you ask me. Probably the result of people who feed them.
I truly wish that people would not feed wild birds!
Ron, it's a joke. The bird's a cross with some local semi-domesticated birds, Aylesbury whites or something.
They mop up anglers groundbaits and stuff from Clattercote. This is it's mate -
So, if anyone's to blame (other than it's mixed parentage) it's anglers. No-one else goes there.
