What kind of duck is this? (More Pics)

[11P&YBOWHUNTER]

Never got it to look at me except when i got up to leave, but by then i put the camera away. It is about the same size as an adult mallard to include an orange colored bill. I was thinking a Mallard hybrid or a duck that is misplaced but can not tell for sure.

I'm not sure what it is, but I saw one just like it at memorial park in athens this weekend.

It's called a mandarin duck, like the ones at the Chinese Restaurant.

well thats cool. That's the same place the picture was taken. This one was sleeping with 4 mallards but 10 minutes later a pair of little kids ran up trying to kick them and their mother thought it was funny!! They landed at the other end of the pond but I did not chase them.

It is not a mandarin duck. Mandarins are just about all orange. That is a sure enough Mutt-duck.
