This male Mandarin duck took up residence in the pond in Figgate Park in Edinburgh a couple of months ago and has become a bit of a local celebrity. Anyway he has taken a shine to this female Mallard and follows her everywhere as well as aggressively chasing off any other ducks (of any species), male or female, who come anywhere near her. She doesn't seem to mind his attention. Has anyone seen a mandarin / mallard hybrid?
