Default RE: Cool looking duck

Ive seen one almost exactly like this one before..

From what ive been told,, its actually a very very old hen mallard. Once a hen mallard goes past breeding age it starts too revert into drake mallard characteristics. Its beak changes colours, it gets some green on the head and tail feathers, and it starts too produce curls on its tail.

This is what ive been told by some very very knowledgable people.. and yes he is definitely going to having it mounted!
