Hi Gail -

Last year I saw a group of wood ducks that looked like this. I've never seen this appearance of woodies before. I only knew what they were because I saw them with mom. When I went back a week later they had changed into something that looked more like a woodie. My conclusion was that there is a short period of time when woodies have this appearance. Maybe someone else has seen this as well.

Subject: [mou-net] unknown baby duck


This baby duck has been on Lake Vadnais (Ramsey County) in recent days and I
haven't been able to figure out what it is.  It sort of looks like a
mallard, or a wood duck, but the bill is very different and the markings are
wrong.  I've posted a couple photos on Flickr if anyone wants to take a
look.  I would really like to know what it is!

If you click on the photo, you can see a larger version.
