Detalles de la observación
***Mega in state, continuing but hard to find male. Appeared at north end of pond about 7:30, likely having flown in with a small dabbler flock 15 minutes prior. Swam around with its female for a few minutes, bathed briefly, then female took off at 7:35 and headed NE, and the Mottled joined her moments later. Lost behind houses but continued the NE trajectory while they were in view at least. Large, dark Anas with long, bright yellow bill, pale buff face and neck, dark brown scalloped body plumage, lighter and more patterned than nearby black ducks but much darker and more contrasting with head than female Mallards. Speculum bright, medium blue, trailing edge with an indistinct frosty border. Photos.
