Is that a hybrid or a muscovey duck? Either way, nice portrait.

No idea about the ID. It look a bit like this duck (http://arubaphoto.smugmug.com/photos/142118879-O.jpg).

Beautiful capture of this awesome looking bird.

Thanks for sharing,

Dick.

Cool portrait! I believe Maestro is right and it is a domestic Muscovy duck.

[Herman Auer]

Thank you all for your comments.
Much appreciated. I do believe its a Muscovey Duck...
