The Crossbred Duck Mystery?

[ParkerMan]

The other day i shot a duck that looked like a pintail in the air , but when i picked it up , i realized that it didnt look like a pintail.
Instead, it was a widgeon with a 3 in, sprig sticking out of his tail feathers. The fellow i was hunting with said that it was a crossbreed between a widgeon and a pintail. I have never heard of such. I took a picture of him , but they are being developed as we speak. i will put it on here asap. have any of yall heard of a crossbred duck?
