(via Kottke) – I’m not going to pretend I know what’s going on with this bird’s genetics, but this is a gynandromorph cardinal, half male and half female. Cool, huh?

The Mallard duck is well-known for its promiscuity, regularly mating with other duck species. I have seen some startling combinations.
