We almost limited out. Hunting started at 7:20 and we were packing up by 8:00. We would have had two limits, if we could have stayed out. My hunting partner received a phone call from his daughters school telling him his daughter was had a temp. and was running ill. We had to pull the decoys and drop the gear in order for him to pick her up from school. It still turned out good. I limited pretty quick and this was his first hunt of the season, so he was getting warmed up. Mallards and one grey duck, "Gadwall".

are you sure thats a gadwall? almost looks like my half mallard half pintail

It's not a Gadwall. I think you got a real immature drake Pintail. Take a good look at the wing feathers. I believe you'll see pintail colors. Remember the Gadwall will have white/black/white in that order.

+1. Looks like a pintail to me.

My partner called it a pintail when he shot it and I called it a cross, more of a gadwal as it had the chest feathers and bars on the wings. It lacked the green bars of that of a pintail. Its bill did however look like a pintail. I went with grey duck as it had more characteristics of one. I like having the oddball cross ducks mounted, for display, but to early in the season for this one.
