Hi all,
I have attached a picture of my 4 week old duck and I've noticed part of her left wing is sticking up and that today I could see blood on the edge of it. I know this is probably a silly question but should I take her to a vet?
Thanks for looking.

Can you get a picture from a top view?
 
Not sure if this view is any better.

It looks like primary flight feathers coming in. They will have blood in them and as they get longer they will begin to blend in better. If you are not use to it that can be a bit odd looking. Unless it looks like it is broken or actively bleeding which is hard to tell from your pics, it should be nothing to worry about.
