Walking along the canal this morning with the dogs and there were plenty of happy mallard families, one of which had a white baby is this common? Don't recall seeing one before.

...and Sarah has LOADS of white ones now. :D

If you have a few days to spare, you can read all about them on her Titch thread.

It's a recessive gene that comes to the fore every now and then.
