This is a variety of the teal, for it wants the 

 two white streaks above and below the eyes ; 

 the lower one indeed is faintly expressed in 

 the male, which has also a lunated bar of 

 white over each shoulder ; this is not to be 

 found in the European teal. This species is 

 not very plentiful near Severn river ; they 

 live in the woods and plains near little ponds 

 of water, and have from five to seven young 

 at a time.
