[cobirds] Fort Collins City Park duck (Larimer) on 4/21/21

On a post several months ago I included a pic of a Mallard at Sheldon Lake, Fort Collins City Park, that according to an illustration in Sibley is a female displaying drake characteristics.  If you go to the regular Mallard page in Sibley, then flip over to the previous page, he talks about hybrids and this macho female.  I got better pics the other day and wanted to share them.  They are somewhat like Mallard X Black males on the head but otherwise distinctive.
