Thanks for all the quick answers. The thing that threw me is that the duck
on the left was very small. Is it possible it is an young mallard? I wish I
had caught something in the shot for a size reference. I see lots of
mallards everyday and this was smaller.

Ok I bragged on my new guide and now I am lost (again). I have combined two
photo's because these two ducks were together. Not sure if they belong
together though. There were small in size somewhere between a green wing
teal and a rinkneck. Spotted at the South Holston Weir Dam in Sullivan
County TN around 7:15 AM GMT.
