**FOCUS ON THE BIRD**

MALLARD (**Anas platyrhynchos)**

**Family - Anatidae. Swans, ducks and geese.**

**Length - 50 to 65cm. Wingspan - 81 to 95cm. Weight - 750 to 1500g. Lifespan - 15 to 25 years.**

**Conservation Status - Secure.**

**Seen - All year round almost anywhere within reach of almost any kind of water, from towns to remote moorland pools. In winter often on estuarine salt marshes but less so on open sea.**

Eats - Small aquatic invertebrates, seeds, roots, shoots and grain from shallow water while upending or dabbling. Also feeds on dry ground such as stubble fields. They will often fly to nearby fields to feed at night.

**Nests - Grass, leaf and down lined hollow on the ground or in raised sites from January to August . 9 - 13 eggs. 1 brood.**

The most widespread and familiar of all the ducks. The different breeds of the farmyard duck are the domestic forms of the Mallard, they vary from very dark brown to being completely white. The status of the wild form is obscured by the release of thousands bred for shooting. The male has a dark green head, a white neck ring, a yellow bill, and is mainly purple-brown on the breast and grey on the body. The female is mainly mottled brown with a dark stripe though the eye and an orange bill. Both have a characteristic purple-blue wing patch or speculum throughout the year, the male having curly central tail feathers.

Male                                                                            Female
