Green-winged Teal (American) (Anas crecca carolinensis) (1) CONFIRMED
- Reported Jun 08, 2025 08:05 by Tom Edell
- Parkview Rd--Morro Bay Estuary Overlook, San Luis Obispo, California
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&<q...>,-120.8334807&<ll...>,-120.8334807 - Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S248288143 - Comments: "Male with Mallards in Chorro Creek channel. Small duck compared to Mallards with white horizontal marks on each side of the breast stood out at distance and first caused me to look more closely at this bird. Otherwise noted the grayish sides, rusty head and neck, and what looked like mottled white in the undertail coverts. Too distance to see finer detail or colors."
