Hi Alan

The two on the rocks are juvenile Starlings and the duck is an eclipse drake Mallard

cheers, John

BELOW: Eclipse drake Mallard, some keep some green on head but a lot of them don't. They are similar to females but keep the adult greenish/yellow beak colouring, the blackish upper and under-tail coverts.
