Re: duck id....
Looks like and immature Redhead drake to me. The red is starting to come in around the edge of the bill. A better picture of the whole duck would be helpful.

Re: duck id....
from the pic i'd say either a imature redhead, or a ringneck cross, need more pics to be sure, but i'd also tell ya to ask the waterfowler, i think he has seen it all and would be willing to tell ya. if its an imature bird, look at the edges of the feathers and see if they have an unusual amount of wear, if they are not worn down, or do not have frayed edges, it would more likely be a cross, but if they are worn or frayed its just an imature bird
