Observation details
At least one female, possibly 3. Al DeMartini found these/this, and also thought there maybe >1. This individual consistently had a steep forehead angle above the bill. She also had a shiny mostly orange bill, head slightly darker. Bill was small, but not ridiculously so. I pondered hybrid possibilities, but no clear indication it is. The head shape and bill stood out adequately that I'm not too concerned. Across the lake in another flock was a female with a bill even more orange than this. But too far to see head shape, and they dove so frequently I couldn't really tell.
