Mallard
These two male Mallards are leaving quite a wake as they make their way across the lake. Mallards are on our lake year around, They are one of the most common ducks in our area of Northeastern Ohio. The male has the characteristic green head, white neck ring, chestnut breast, grayish body, and a black tail with a white stripe. They range in length from 18-27" and have a wingspan up to 36". They are semi-domesticated and can be found on most bodies of water.
