Greetings again.

I've just updated the Eurasian Wigeon web page, and included a photo I took
recently at Beacon Hill Park in Victoria BC.

If I saw this bird way out in a field with some American Wigeon, I would
likely call it an
Eurasian Wigeon. However, I was pretty much standing right next to this
bird, and the head pattern looks a bit suspicious....

The photo can be accessed via

Any comments on the bird???

Cheers,
