Corey Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Today in southern Nevada. I heard a couple odd quacks, searching around a little island in the wash, it was this duck which I assumed was just a mallard, but Merlin says it is a mottled (probably impossible here) or a Mexican duck (rare here). Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalarope713 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Yep, Mallard. No sign of hybridization with Mexican. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birding Boy Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 That tail is way to white for anything interesting (Mottled, Mexican, etc) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
