The guy is an expert on waterfowl ID. Even if he isn't an expert on hybrids, a hybrid is probably going to have markings similar to the 2 parent species. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that he can look at the bird and see markings prevalent in 2 or more species.

no **** man.... all i ask is where did the painted blue bill come from since it didnt have a blue bill in the picture of the dude holding it..

man y'all shouldn't get so upset..
