This morning there is a new classic white duck with a slightly turned up orange bill on the large pond at Evergreen. It’s a little smaller than the nearby malllards.

Hey Peter

I saw a similar all-white small duck at the ponds on Sept 29th. I haven't seen it since. I wonder if it is the same bird.

I shot over during my lunch break and added a few photos to the checklist below.   I have assumed this was a Mallard (domestic type) but would be happy if this was something new and different.   I have one photo that shows the contrast in size.

Looks like a domestic bantam duck or cross with an old beak injury to me.
