Feeding some ducks at Kenner City Park

We went to feed some ducks at the park a few minutes from our house and we noticed a lot of exotic ducks were there, some banded. Muscovies, mallards, a wood duck, a mandarin duck, ringed teals, pintails and several species I have never even seen before.

@ellanroxy you should sit in the middle, and feed them one by one. God style

Here's my list. I watched the video several times and I never saw any Ringed Teals or White-fronted Geese.

Wild non-duck/geese birds: Coot, Ring-billed Gull, Laughing Gull

Native (could be wild or tamed): male Canvasback, Pintail, Fulvous Whistling Duck, Wood Duck, Mallard (wild coloration), female Greater Scaup (lessers have thinner bill)

Domestic/barnyard: Mallard, Chinese/Swan Goose, Muscovy

Exotic: Mandarin Duck, White-cheeked Pintail, Barnacle Goose

@chumanho Sometimes it's just important to seem smart.

Thanks for the IDs, but how can you tell it's a lesser scaup? I found it very difficult if not impossible to tell between the greater and the lesser...

[chumanho]

I can't believe how many different kinds of ducks geese and gulls you've got all in one place! :-)

[yourboypaulie]

Not so exotic. I recognize Fulvous Whistling Ducks, Wood duck male and female, N. Pintail male and female, Canvasback, Lesser Scaup (platypus) and a White-Fronted goose. All native. Seeing them together would cause quite a stir around here.

I cant belive so many people have no idea what ducks even look like.
