Observation details
Drake with bright yellow bill showing a black gape mark. Very buffy face and throat. It has a distinctive very narrow white rear border to the speculum. All these field marks can be seen in the attached photos. Seen copulating with a Mallard hen. Awesome **MEGA** find by my brother Ernst Mutchnick three days ago on April 5th. First New York record (for eBird).
