<Image by © Wolf Peter Weber of 5 domestic Little White Ducks with a white Mallard>
5 domestic Little White Ducks, escaped or released (..?) but doing just fine, with a white
Mallard (top right), albino or frequent hybrid, like the anthracite colored one with a white chest
in the center picture. Mallards are known to be fairly indiscriminate cross-breeders...
Below we get to see a few of the most prevailing species in numbers here,
the Wasserhuhn similar to the American Common Moorhen.
