Anas Platyrhnchos
Could this possibly be a mallard of some kind?
Definitely a domestic Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos [domesticus]). A mutt, though. Blue Swedish x Pekin would be my guess. I haven't heard of a grey Pekin before.
nice spotting
This is a hybrid between the Gray Pekin duck (domestic duck) and the Mallard. Nice shot!
