Send a pic over to taxidermy.net. They'll tell you exactly what it is.

 Believe it or not, I had one similar to your's on my property yesterday and a couple of week's ago. It was lighter in the body and a tad darker in head, neck and breast. We hunted yesterday (2 people) and today (4 people, 2 blind's) and I thought that we had a pretty good chance to get it. Not so. Yesterday was another greenhead day and today was odd. One each of us that has watched it was in each blind today but, today the bird's flew totally different than they did yesterday. That's duck hunting! I thought for sure that me and my blindmate would've gotten up to 14 bird's in the first hour or so. Not the case. Didn't fire a shot. The other party got a few but not the blonde one. Tomorrow is brant/seaduck day. Maybe one of us will get it yet, who know's. That's hunting. You've gotten yourself a bird you will likely never get again. If your into "collecting" bird's to have mounted (like me) for sure get it mounted. If not take a picture and cherise that photo periodically over the year's as something that was/is rare.
