[birding] Photos of female Eurasian Wigeon w/ light throat

[Jamie S.]

I have posted 6 photos of the female Eurasian Wigeon at Stewart Lake (HP), Corvallis at the link below.  (The first 6 photos; click on each photo to see it larger.)  I included female American Wigeon for comparison in 4 of the cropped pics.  The light-colored throat is obvious.  Sibley notes "often unmarked throat" but it's not as obvious in his example as in these photos.
