Seanbirds Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Does Lesser Scaup hybridize with Ring-necked Duck? Or is the ring around its neck just due to the lighting? Agree with the others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty common actually. 11 minutes ago, Seanbirds said: Or is the ring around its neck just due to the lighting? Almost certainly. We know this isn't a hybrid because of the normal back color and bill, among other things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
