Male Mallard Duck - Anas platyrhynchos
Mallard ducks can tend to interbreed with many other indigenous wild ducks of closely related species and can produce various coloured forms and this one has to be the most stunning looking one I've yet to find and see. The proper scientific term for this however is actually called genetic pollution.
