There it is. The Eurasian, or "common", teal. Key difference is the white along the side pocket. Like I said, I'd call it a GWT and carve it up without even noticing if I bagged one.Quote:

Could it be a Redhead-Canvasback hybrid?
Correct on the Eurasian wigeon jda.
You're very warm with the red-headed duck and are correct in assuming that it isn't a redhead. And no, I haven't brought out the hybrids (yet). Along the same theme of "exotic species" that get occasionally harvested in North America.

I know, likely not fair but.
It must be a Common Pochard then?Quote:

Correct on the pochard and my guess was also grey duck for the butt. Now it's jdangelo's turn...
In all honesty Hunter John, it was my first guess. This was however confirmed when I clicked on the picture and the file name was "gadwall_upd_6.jpg" :)Quote:

Likely an easy one for you more experienced guys, however, I just saw and shot my first of this duck this past weekend.
