What is this I’m newer to duck hunting
GADWALL DRAKE !!!! You will also hear them called greys, grey ducks, gaddys
Gadwall drake. AKA “grey duck”.
That was our guess but wasn’t sure
The usually "colored" feathers near a ducks body on the outside of the wing are called the speculum...no the the gynecologist's tool...gadwalls are the only puddle ducks with a white speculum.

Beautiful Gadwall Drake. I think they are severely underrated in their beauty.
They seem to be thick in west Texas this year.
I like the way they commit. Rarely circling around making you work for it. Just straight down to the dekes first pass.
Mmmeeeeeeeep
