IDENTIFYING THIS DUCK! (I DID NOT SHOOT IT)
« on: November 25, 2009, 10:15:30 AM »
Ok guys, I did not shoot this duck, nor will I mention who did shoot it (I was not present on this hunt BTW) just had this picture sent to me.  What kind of duck is it because I'm having trouble identifying it.  It was shot in Northern Washington.

Too small to be one, looks like it is sitting on top of a mallard for size comparison. Has a brown head, with the green stripe thing on it.

Don't laugh but it could be an Eurasian wigeon? I guessing it's the size of a teal, Because it looks like its next to a mallard... I'd say a teal or Eurasian???

tough to tell by the picture, but with the size I would agree with the GW Teal.  The eurasian widgeon would be closer to the size of the mallard.

I've seen Eurasian wigeon (Juvenal) and they were a litte bigger than a teal. I thought they looked like a small canvas back... that's why i said it :twocents:
