@TheMERL @britishmuseum I drew this Mallard which I quite like. He ended up kind of shifty-looking and I think it's because they make me think of used car salesmen but I don't know why.
Sorry about the stereotyping, used car salesmen.

For #FirstDayQuack, The Natural History of the British Surface-feeding Ducks by John G. Millais.
A hunter, naturalist, artist & writer, Millais travelled extensively collecting specimens and recording the birds he observed. #InternationalSolicitedDuckPicDay #FirstDayBack 🦆
