Thanks for splitting the spottings, Nicole.

While I agree with Ashley that this is a Mallard, my inclination was eclipse-plumaged drake over domestic.

Hi Nicole, welcome to Project Noah! You have two different organisms here, the second picture should be removed from this spotting and added to its own spotting so it can be ID'd for you. Also, the category of this spotting should be changed from "Mammals" to "birds". The FAQ, https://www.projectnoah.org/faq can help you with how to figure out the site, and if you have any questions you can jump on the chats at the bottom of the screen :) Look forward to more spottings from you!
