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.
