Description
When: September 22, 2019

Sometimes I think that Birds must do things differently than animals who have actual paws. And then you see one scratching an itch and I realize: it's really not that different
Species: Mallard or Wild Duck (Wilde eend)
Latin name: Anas Platyrhynchos
Originates from the temperate and subtropical Americas, Europe, Asia and North Africa, and has been introduced to New Zealand and Australia.
Current status: Least Concern
Did you know:
…Male Mallards are called “drakes”.

Well, for birds of all types, it sort of is. Can’t scratch an itch with a wing. Although that would be funny to see.
