Observation details
Awesome looking bird, many photos. Drake that was pretty much down the middle between the two sp. at first glance, the bird gave a RNDU vibe in overall coloration but the shape of the head was very much CANV, as the bird turned the reddish head became apparent. The back was clearly paler than RNDU as were the flanks, the spur of a RNDU was also apparent on the breast sides of this bird. The bill had a distinct ring at the tip. As the bird was swimming towards me, the "bull-neck" of the CANV was apparent. Really really neat bird!
