Observation details

Large duck, nearly as large as a small Canada Goose, with black body and white face, black-capped. Surely a domestic duck, though of what breed I'm not sure. Thanks to Ben Kenway for posting photos of a domestic Mallard looking similar to this one, that he saw in England. First one like this we've seen on Ford Lake.
