Observation details
To differentiate the Greater Scaup from the Lesser Scaup, my photo shows its size in comparison to the Tufted Duck, displaying its larger bill and body, that of the Greater Scaup. The small black tip on the bill signifies a female Greater Scaup and not a female Tufted Duck, as the black tip would be noticeably larger, as the male Tufted Duck shows.
