Buffleheads View 2
The male is in his breeding plumage. The front part of his head is iridescent and will reflect green, blue and purple when the light hits it just right. With all that white and the eye in the dark area, this species is very difficult to photograph. The smallest one is the female. The one in back is an immature male starting to get his white coloring.
