Looks like a domesticated or half-breed mallard to me. Nothing special.

Yup. It is indeed a hybrid between a domestic duck and a mallard. The blue wing bars are highly suggestive of that.

1. Immediately call 911.
2. Rant wildly about your duck intruder to dispatch.
3. Hang up abruptly.
4. Wait patiently for assistance.
5. Report back to ATOT.
6. Profit.
 
LOL. My favorite thread of the day!

Totally needed something like this to get me through this crappy day. I have never been so busy at work in my entire life. yikes.

What a beautiful duck also. He's perty.

I went to the backyard to take the garbage cans out and found a duck. Anyone have an idea what kind of duck it is? I have no idea what its doing here or where it came from. I have no idea what to do, and I don't feel like eating it.
