Sam, my funnyface mallard boy

Sam has a hookbill, but that hasn't stopped him from being a feisty duck. I have noticed however that he does have problems finding a lady friend come spring time. Poor Sam! You'll note that the top photo shows him molting, i.e. he can't fly during this period when his green head feathers change over to brown for the summer months.
