Help me guys. I'm not a duck hunter. I'm a pheasant hunter. In central Texas at in laws for holidays, so I forced myself to take up duck hunting to kill the week.

I've had 3 friends back in Missouri say hen gadwall. They may be right, but all the pictures of hen gadwall I've seen show a yellow bill (this is dark with a blue splotch on end) , have a white patch when wings are extended (this is all gray), have orange feet (these are dark). Also, skin was tight on breast meat, where teal just slid skin off.


So educate this bird hunter that's not a duck hunter.
