Observation details
Male observed resting on the shore with other Mallards. Speculum purple with rather thin lower border. Dark brown overall with modest contrast between breast and pale tan head and neck. Noticeably darker than nearby female Mallard. Bill yellow, similar in color to male Mallard but with an olive wash. Hybrid excluded by solid brown tail and undertail coverts, lack of green in head, and uncurled tail feathers.
