Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) ebird/Clements (2018)
	63 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) Presa México, Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes (Agu), Mexico 2008-10-17 Males and female flying.
	1043 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) Presa La Colorada, El Llano, Aguascalientes (Agu), Mexico 2010-09-26 Males and females in eclipse plumage. The males retain the stronger body color and also shows a stronger white band behind the blue wing patch. Here with Least Sandpiper. and Lesser Yellowlegs.
	1044 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Peregrino, Cd. Colima, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-01-31 Young male with juvenile type body and weakly marked adult head.
	1045 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Peregrino, Cd. Colima, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-01-31 Female, probably 2cy. Very gray bird. The black spots on the bill indicate the age. Young birds have few as seen here.
	1046 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Tortugario - Estero Palo Verde, Cuyutlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-04-21 Adult male.
	808 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Tortugario - Estero Palo Verde, Cuyutlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-11-17 Female. Strong markings and spot at base of bill.
	812 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Tortugario - Estero Palo Verde, Cuyutlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-11-17 Female.
	1047 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) El Tortugario - Estero Palo Verde, Cuyutlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2012-11-17 Females. The rear bird looks more golden and with a longer bill giving associations toward Cinnamon. But as far as I recall the bird on photo 812 is the same as the front bird. Here the light is more chilly, which makes me believe that both birds most likely are Blue-winged.
	807 (1 photos) Blue-winged Teal (Spatula discors) monotypic Ducks, Geese and Waterfowl (Anatidae) Laguna Zapotlán, Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2012-11-22 Female type. Perhaps young birds. Difficult light but it is perceivable that they look strongly marked - contrary of what would be expected of Cinnamon Teals.
