A fictional character (a mallard duck) and mascot of WRVA radio in Richmond, Virginia. Millard the Mallard first appeared in September 1972 as a joke when John Harding, of the WRVA news staff, started making a Donald Duck type voice during Alden Aaroe's morning show. Millard remained a daily feature for the next 28 years.

John Harding reports that "Right now, Millard is soaking in retirement in a swamp here on our farm..... swizzles cold deliciouses and listens to deep tracks on old Miles Davis Albums. Oh yeah, and by the way, He's still upset that he got passed over for the AFLAC duck bits. Its tough being green."
