I have raised mallard ducks for many years now and I have observed them of having considerable intelligence. They can identify and return to familiar geographical areas, respond to voice commands, and have many ways of communicating with each other. If you look at a mallard duck's head, its skull is larger than that of most birds, so you can assume that it has more space for a brain. This is the same with most waterfowl I believe.

Predators of mallard ducks include foxes, raccoons, birds of prey (like hawks and owls), and larger carnivorous mammals such as coyotes. Additionally, domestic cats and dogs can also pose a threat to mallard ducks.

Nope, all ducks, geese, chickens, guineas and soforth are birds. Mammals have fur, usually, and don't lay eggs. (The Platypus and Echidna are one exception.)
