Last spring I photographed this duck or one exactly like it at Klamath Basin NWR. It appeared to be mated to a bufflehead since it was always with one. That makes me think that its mother was probably a bufflehead and father a goldeneye. It is a very attractive duck I must say. You can see my pictures of it on my website:www.rlkimages.photoshelter.com

Click on the "Ducks" gallery and scroll to the very last images (there are about 180 images in that gallery). I was able to get quite close to it while shooting from my car.
