That picture is marginal at best, but based on the picture, It is definitely a Green Winged Teal Drake probably in eclipse phase.  Do you know what time of year it was shot?  I'm guessing early in the season.  Hope that helps.  John

It appears to be a Green Wing Teal.  Eurasion Wigeon is a lot larger.  I have shot several of them.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

I know some one who shot one before because it came in with the mallards and they just assumed it was a mallard, I think it is some kind of bird that was bread with a canvas back. :dunno: :dunno: :dunno: :dunno: :dunno:

Vote for greenwing. Eurasian is completely out of the question. The bill is completely wrong for that.
