On Snively Pond in Oak Ridges...

 Male MALLARD (in fall eclipse)
At first, I thought this male Mallard duck had an odd shade of green (like pale pond scum) on the top of its head, but then decided that in fact, it was a male, in its late-summer/early-fall  eclipse with its iridescent green head fading away and making it resemble a female.

Please comment if you wish.
