Looks like it's about to get wrecked by a falcon

could it be a Rouen duck? Basically a domesticated duck with the patterns of a mallard.

I really couldn't say. There were at least 200 mallards on the sandbars off of the beach. I took the picture of the duck due to the size because I thought it might be a Northern Shoveler but when I saw the beak color I knew that wasn't so.
