Not white like a barnyard duck, white like a gull. Light grey wings. No markings in flight. Rounded head and a blue bill with a red patch at the base. The only blue billed duck I could find in NG was a Florida pintail but this duck had none of the other markings. Is this a captive on the lam? A captive what? Did anyone else see it? ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
