When is a baby duck not a baby duck? In this case, the small duck in this picture is not a baby Mallard, but a
Call Duck, a small domestic variety of Mallard. It waddled up to my car the other day with the full-sized Mallards at one of my local ponds in Clinton, NJ. Note also the interesting plumage, without the dark brown chest of a wild drake Mallard.
