No worries Gaiasguard! Project Noah uses scientific names to organize and index spottings. If you're sure of the species in your spottings they can easily be found out using Google. Once again, welcome to the site!

Hi Gaiasguard, and welcome to Project Noah! Lovely photo. The scientific name for the mallard is Anas platyrhynchos. Thanks in advance for completing this field in your spotting so that it can leave the Unidentified list.
