    Nice duck.
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    It's mottled duck but it looks like you cut the wing off of a black duck and sewed it on a mottled duck.

    The secondary coverts (where a bluewing teal is blue) are mostly un-edged. Most of the time, mottled ducks (hens and drakes) have well-edged secondary coverts. There is very well-defined edging right at the joint but usually it goes all the way to the flight feathers.

    Here's a drake mottled from the USFWS wing site:
