Mallard Ducks, The Mallard Duck Guide Book, Caring For Your Mallards, Habitat, Diet, As A Pet, Mating, Eggs, and much more.Mallard ducks are quirky, fascinating creatures. Known throughout the animal kingdom for being sticklers for routine and schedules, Mallard ducks are surprisingly ill-suited for house training.

Known to be aloof and detached, Mallard ducks may one day become dissatisfied with the settings you provide and choose to simply fly away. Such is the nature of these proud birds.

Mallard
Author: Don Hale
Publisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0750992913
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Just over eighty years ago on the East Coast main line, the streamlined A4 Pacific locomotive Mallard reached a top speed of 126mph – a world record for steam locomotives that still stands. Since then, millions have seen this famous locomotive, resplendent in her blue livery, on display at the National Railway Museum in York. Here, Don Hale tells the full story of how the record was broken: from the nineteenth-century London–Scotland speed race and, surprisingly, traces Mallard's futuristic design back to the Bugatti car and the influence of Germany's nascent Third Reich, which propelled the train into an instrument of national prestige. He also celebrates Mallard's designer, Sir Nigel Gresley, one of Britain's most gifted engineers. Mallard is a wonderful tribute to one of British technology's finest hours.
