mallards
Common pond ducks
Mallards are the most common wild ducks in the Northern Hemisphere, recognizable by the male's iridescent green head and white neck ring.
Most domestic ducks descend from mallards.
The word often appears in contexts of hunting, birdwatching, or feeding ducks at a pond: A pair of mallards landed on the lake.
