Type of duck?

Okay duck experts what type is she?

I thought Pintail at first, now I'm thinking Wigeon? Not so sure on this one?

The only one we got today. First time out in years. I need practice, shot 3 times, no ducks for me. :)

Gadwall drake. AKA "Gray Duck"

Three shots, no ducks. Sounds familiar! Sometimes I shoot the ducks, and sometimes I just shoot. Usually when I miss I call them warning shots.

There is a book that I found online when I took up waterfowl hunting that is great for identifing birds. It's called The Lemaster Method and of all the books this one helped me the most.

Here is a link.

Very informative. It shows actual bill size and color of all the duck and has a good referance as to how they look when they are flying.

Hope this helps.
