I've seen a few of those 'odd' mallards with white throats and brown bodies in both London and Dublin. If you're interested, you can see a photo of one here.
ReplyDeleteIn a domestic duck, that's called a bibbed duck. Could have occurred naturally or a domestic duck (mallard derivative) bred with a wild duck and the trait is now "out there".
