Only one bullet Penetrated this female Mallard, one straight to the head

The Golden BB, but I think you have a Drake Mallard there?

Uh a drake is a male, thats a hen.
not to steal your thunder, but look at this 3yd shot I made on this teal whizzing by my head the other day. I think I hit em w/ every pellet in the brain!

Ha ha I love it when I make shots like that. I shot a grouse's head completley off the other day and he ran around with no head for about 30 seconds. It was pretty cool.
Good lookin duck though, and even a better looking shot

Sorry, look again, that my friend is a Drake Mallard (male)!

Hmmm Im guessing youre just pulling my leg hahah but just in case you dont actually know that drake mallards have green heads, ..... they do, why do you think the call em "greenheads"? google images "drake mallard" or go to DU limited duck ID.


Drake mallard(the big one with the green head)

I'm beginning to think he's right about the drake. MOST....I dont suppose it's a rule, but MOST hens have black/green mottling on the their bills.

Hey, Ill be the 1st to say Im no expert, so please explain to me how it possible a mallrd drake can have a brown head and body, and no white ring on the neck. All the mallard drakes Ive shot, have grey and black backs, and burgundy chests.

I'm pretty sure that's a hen

Yup, Thats a pre color Drake... In about a month he'd be all green... It's a real early bird.
