[EBB Sightings] Bob Battigan's Hybrid duck

The Lake Merritt hybrid had (or has--it's been seen this fall by better
people than me) an all-dark head, bright golden eye, white markings on a
black back, and dark flanks. Photos are accessible at
http://home.earthlink.net/~chamaea/20050119.htm

For comparison, the Berkeley Bufflehead hybrid is at

I believe that was a Goldeneyes hybrid.

Could this hybrid cross described by Bob Battigan today be the same one
seen the last couple of years near the estuary entrance to Lake
Merritt?
