Here is another hybrid duck, photographed today at Prospect Ponds Natural Area’s Sharp Point Pond in Fort Collins (Larimer County). It appears to be a drake Mallard x Northern Pintail. Any other opinions?

Thanks to Steve, Deb and Andy for pointing out that Gadwall, not Pintail, sired this odd duck, along with Mallard.
