Does anyone know what kind of duck this is?  Someone posted it on the Explore chat board yesterday, I think.

Ginger, that duck looks like the same that was posted in RRP Facebook post today.  I believe they said it was a ring necked duck.

Just a guess here Ginger... ???
Ringneck (?Ringbill?) This small duck has a dark, peaked head and a white ring around the front of a blue-gray bill. Difficult to identify in flight.

Thanks, Lisa and Lori.  I actually came across RRP's post a little while ago in my newsfeed and remembered that I saw did see it earlier today but for some reason when I'm on my phone or tablet if I click on RRP's Facebook pics they won't open.  I have to come to my PC to open them.  Anyway, the duck's coloring is beautiful.  RRP's description said:

"11/14/19: What kind of duck is this? A Ring-necked Duck. Ring-necked ducks are generalists - they are omnivores who often dive for food but may also dabble in shallow puddles like mallards. Peak migration starts in late September and runs through early December. Ice-covered water pushes them south."

They originally said "ring-billed" but that was an error that they corrected.
