I decided on the American Wigeon for this years Federal Duck Stamp entry. I wanted to do a "warm" painting and the rich rust and green of the Wigeon lended itself perfectly for this type of lighting. The Wigeon, (also spelled "Widgeon" ) or baldpate, is one of four species of dabbling ducks. The
white crown, green eye stripe, and brown back distinguish the male of
this American species. Baldpates often graze like geese on young grasses,
and they are fond of eelgrass, which they will steal from diving ducks
such as the canvasback.
