I was leaning that way,,,,what throws me off is it's bill, spoon like, and wide, --- but it's all black, no shade difference, and color around neck /ear area not really defined. I don't ever get ducks like this for last 7 years, had a scalp pair there as well , these are ducks that never seem to grace my neck of the woods. a treat for sure. thank youCanvasback hen, juvenile.
thanks, i do check those pages, problem is they don't show all color schemes at certain ages, so that renders those pages useless. And to boot, i hunted same pond for 7 years, never get ducks like this,We always used the Ducks Unlimited app when me and my buddy were wanting to identify our ducks.
Great description and pictures of both hens and drakes and from puddle ducks to diving ducks to geese etc.
You can bring the app up right after you get a duck and figure it out.
could be a ringneck, or lesser scaup, never seen them at all where i have hunted the past 27 years. i know the guys that hunt the lakes see them, i do wish for more varieties to keep coming in to my pond.Can Hen juvenile looks right. The slope of the bill is a dead giveaway. Came in with some black & white birds ? Bluebills maybe or Ringnecks ?
