    There was a male Eurasian Wigeon X American Wigeon hybrid in the 
    mitigation marsh at Arrowhead Marsh on Oakland today.  It had the red 
    head and gold crown stripe of a Eurasian Wigeon, but with a splash of 
    green on the side of the head and pinkish sides on the body.  Don't know 
    if this is the same bird reported as a Eurasian Wigeon a couple of days 
    ago, but I didn't see any other candidates.
