One of the residents at le Domaine – Di Wayne, took the following photo of a mystery duck seen on the property. The photo was taken 7 years ago and I thought it might still be of interest to our followers.
Sally and I have puzzled over its ID and believe it to be a female Wood Duck – native to North America.
What do you think?

I wonder if this isn’t the duck with the bluish beak that I saw on a pond in Marseilles last week?
Very Unlikely Ann as the photo was taken 7 years ago.
