Observation details
presumed non breeding male (maybe the long-stayer?) with flock of juvenile and moulting mallards at south of pond. Originally I thought it was blue-winged teal. From the light I had I thought I observed a crescent at the bill, and overall lighter colour than field-guide indicated for green-winged. However Ted Bradford's excellent photos and Marshall Iliff's visit confirmed green-winged, presumably from lack of pale bill crescent, bill size and shape, and buffy tail streak. Edit: Marshall Iliff confirmed this bird as a female, so definitely not the previous male.
