We did shoot one drake that was definitely a juvie that didn't have near the colors as the others and wasn't as big as the others. I suppose that one could have been a late hatch. It seems a little weird that we'd shoot all juvies but maybe we were hunting the young bachelor hangout.

Pretty sure first year males still resemble females. Maybe not by the time the get to Texas, but in October in canada they did.
