Hi MDOsprey,
Family went to the Duck Pond in Adelphi West of Md U.
Saw an irridescent green duck w/ black bill, mallard size.
Anyone ever see it?  Is it a domesticated duck?  Yesterday saw
60+ Canada Goose and several M/F Mallards.  At Hyattsville
Library  went through all the birding books available with no luck.
Any ideas?
