Common Goldeneye

Britton Ford Refuge; TN

This hen is showing a typical amount of yellow on the bill, but they can show more which invites confusion with female Barrow's. This female is showing the classic Common headshape, with a well-sloped forehead and obviously peaked crown. Barrow's also has a shorter, deeper-based bill.
