Northern Pintail
This drake was seen during the Ithaca CBC on January 1, 2006 at Stewart Park in Ithaca, NY.
Sheldrake Point - 17 March, 2007
A nice comparison between female mallards and female Northern Pintail.
Note
the bill color, structural differences, and feather pattern on the
flanks.
Pintail is in the back/top.
Again, Pintail is in the back.
Two male mallards and the female Pintail.
Here's the femal with the male pintail.
