Today I was beginning to fill the water bowl and throw some corn on my front porch for my female mallard duck that visits me every day,when she was already on the porch where I usually sit to feed her. However I was not wearing a shirt or hat like I normally do when she visits. She was a little shy today and just sat by the water bowl just staring at me. I think she didn't recognize me because I was not wearing the usual shirt and hat? She would stare at me and twist her head side to side like she was trying to figure out whom I was? Do you think she was confused and didn't recognize me?
Comments for DO Mallard Ducks recognize people?

In 27 summers here in Southern Worcester County Massachusetts, I have never seen a bird like this. There were two of them in a crabapple outside my kitchen

Same bird as posted few years ago under Birds at Feeder: Blue Tail and Wings, Sharp Head Yet to be identified. Certainly not a blue bird.
