Observation details
Seen in western arm below main campground. I observed the waterfowl at approximately 10:00. I did not have my camera at the time. I was unable to identify but made note of it's differing appearance from the nearby mallards and that it's bill was much darker and longer than the mallards. I and other local birders returned in early afternoon (12:30pm) and took a variety of photos for ID purposes. There is much debate as to whether this waterfowl is a BWTE female or a CITE-BWTE hybrid. My photos are not great for ID. Consultation is underway to determine this teal species.
