Ducks at Haddon Lake Park: Photos by Kate
I have been a casual visitor of your site for a few months- I love your photos!! I am hoping you could help me identify the duck in the first picture I attached (the all brown one with a dark bill). The others I just attached because the mallards were having so much fun in the sun today out on the frozen lake. The white ducks were also out on the lake with the mallards soaking up the sun. These pictures were taken on a walk around Haddon Lake Park in Haddon Heights, NJ on January 16th.
Thanks for your help identifying that first duck!

Thank you so much for the link to whatbird.com! Someone posted a few seconds later with an answer. It is a male Gadwall.
