Subject: [NatureNS] Mystery duck in the NWT


Hello everyone:


I just got back from a trip out west and despite being mostly in cities, 
ships and a train, I at least managed to get good looks at one new life bird 
in Victoria, the chestnut-backed chickadee. I also had great views of a 
spotted sandpiper that was "patrolling" the edge of a lake near Lutsel K'e, 
NWT where I was visiting family. I saw a duck I didn't recognise while at 
the same lake and it was far enough away that I was really unable to get a 
good picture. Here:


http://myweb.dal.ca/pmkelly/Mystery_Duck.jpg


is the best of four pictures put together. The ones on the left are 
"original colour" and the ones on the right are with the colour auto 
corrected. I have looked in a number of guides, but still can't sort out 
what it might be. If anyone has an idea, I'd love to hear it!
