Hi all,
I'm curious about a female duck I saw around 12:15 today off the beach
of Gov Nelson SP. It in the midst of a
large group of Canada Geese plus some mallards, and a male Mallard
seemed to be associated with
this female. She had a clear white patch above eye, symmetrical on
both sides, and extending to the back of her head.
She also had an obviously gray bill. I had hoped to find the
Long-tailed female that had been reported at GNSP,
but this bird seemed about the same size as the nearby Mallard. I'd
like opinions on this. Off-color
Mallard female?
Cheers,
Chuck Heikkinen
