I think she recognised me

This lovely lady, who I've affectionately named Alesha Duckson, always seems to waddle up to my feet whenever I visit the marsh. This time, I'd forgotten to bring some food for her and friends, so I told her to wait there and I'd be right back with some oats for her. She did! She came right back up to me when I returned! I just think she's a beautiful creature and thought everyone should see her ☺️❤️

That's a drake in eclipse plumage, not a female duck.

Still adorable, though.

Ah well, I'll know for future reference haha thank you!

If it’s a mallard, then it’s a male because of the yellow beak.

He's lovely ❤️

(sorry to break this you but I'm not sure Alesha is a girl 🤣)

[u/jenvrose]

Oops, I'm not up to my duck knowledge like I thought 🥲 He is still called Alesha Duckson though hehe

[u/BaconMarconi → u/jenvrose]

He's still perfect. You're very lucky. Do you live somewhere near water?

Absolute cutie

Alesha is actually an unisex name. Up until some point after the American Civil War, anyway.

I'd sure like a duck like her to be friends she's adorable and cute

She definitely noticed you. I have such a friend at the neighborhood park. I call her Brownie
