A nice capture of these two, Diana! My eye goes straight to the colour patches on their wings! I'm afraid I don't know my ducks at all, but on first viewing, they do appear to be mallards to me (?) Fav
Not sure- the only Mallards I'm familiar with are the soft-brown females and the males with the bright green head. But we're Northern Hemisphere and you're Southern- so there could be different breeds between the two. Nice shot.
Ah, now we're talking. We have mallards in this part of Canada and sometimes lots. Like Ann H. also noted, our mallard ladies are soft brown and males can get colorful heads. Nice capture of these.
