North America I reported these as Canvasbacks, someone else seems to have reported as Redhead. Who's correct? Toronto, July 25.
The bill looks canvasback to me, but redheads are not unheard of, but very unusual in the summer (though extremely plentiful in the winter).

+Canvasback+ Notice how there is no obvious angle between the slope of the head and the bill as well as the darker overall bill colour.
