As others have suggested, the "ID Duck" sounds like a Mallard x barnyard hybrid. There are several strange looking Mallard x barnyard and Canada Goose x barnyard combinations near here at Long Arm Resevoir, just north of the Maryland border, above Westminster, MD. Personally, I've been wishing that these hybrids would be shot and become a meal for someone, before they breed themselves and create more strange combinations. There is no hunting at this resevoir, however. peterrobins@hotmail.com Peter Robinson Hanover, York County, PA ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
