Observation details

Albino (white) mallard - all white mallard - heard with familiar mallard call, pure white surrounded by other mallards, observed in water, on land, and in flight. She was the first mallard to appear on the lake in snowy conditions and landed near a group of Canadian geese; large group of mallards joined her after she called out with familiar mallard call, mainly males; she seemed to be very popular males floating all around her. Based on all observations most likely a white “call duck” [photos included]
