Observation details
Not really familiar with hybrids, so I'm unsure of this ID. Two-tone forehead stripe, darker closer to bill, suggesting Eurasian. No green on head. Hint of red behind eye in the right light suggesting Eurasian. Back appeared somewhat gray like Eurasian, but based on photos I've reviewed, this could be within normal color range for American. Thanks to Kathy for pointing out that it looked a little odd.
