Shot these ducks today. My best guess is juvenile hen paradise shelducks, native to New Zealand. These were shot in the Puget Sound of WA. If they are what I suspect they are I wonder if they are aviary escapees.
Whoah! I googled those things and that ID is spot on but Wikipedia shows them as native to INDIA! Those birds are a long ways from home. Definitely mount them!
