Looks like a Canada Goose but the Legs and Beak are the wrong colours.

One of our local beach gang, hanging out on the rocks.

 

This beauty stood out from the gang due to it's darker colouring and extended black patches particularly over the upper wings. Hooded Crow hybrids. When there is less grey than normal as with this bird then it is not a pure Hooded Crow. They intergrade fairly commonly with Carrion Crows,

Hybrid Ophrys bombyliflora x Ophrys neglecta

Sardinien, April 2023

Good Friday morning everyone, and as always hoping a great day and weekend will be had by all.

The people who knew this species warned me of there aggression and had found out first hand here, and they move pretty quickly.

It was a great experience and a lifer and well worth the effort it took to find them.

Have a great Father's Day to all.

On a trip to our local nursery, we admired this very pretty Hybrid Begonia and bought it to be planted in a small new raised bed I prepared at the centre of my main flower bed. I'm glad I took a picture of the flower, as it fell off the plant shortly after.

Mayo, 2012, a mixed media painting, 30x40cm, is the source of this hybrid

 

I was given Iris bulbs by a friend who needed to divide hers. They were planted in the back of my house in an area where the soil is not the best but only location I had for them. This Spring many grew but only one blossomed with two blooms. Aren't they a beauty with that delicious blue/purple color!!

Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) are known as the "masters of mixed marriages" because they interbreed with more species than almost any other bird, with over 400 recorded waterfowl hybrid combinations. These hybrids occur when wild mallards mate with other wild species or with escaped domestic ducks.

Common Wild Hybrids

Wild mallard hybrids often display a "mosaic" of physical traits from both parents, such as intermediate bill shapes or unique plumage patterns.

Mallard x Northern Pintail:

Often called a "Pintallard," this is one of the most common wild hybrids. Drakes typically have a mallard-like green head but with a blue-gray pintail bill and the pintail's long, pointed tail.

Mallard x American Black Duck:

These are extremely common in the Atlantic Flyway. They look like dark black ducks but often feature iridescent green patches on the head and a mallard's curled tail feathers.

Brewer’s Duck (Mallard x Gadwall):

Named by John James Audubon, who originally believed it was a distinct species. It features coppery and green iridescent tones on the head and a gadwall-like body.

Other Combinations:

Mallards also hybridize with wood ducks, wigeons, shovelers, and teals.

Domestic-Wild Hybrids ("Manky Mallards")

Many "hybrids" seen in city parks are actually crosses between wild mallards and domestic breeds (like Pekin or Cayuga).

Identification:

These birds often appear larger than wild mallards, have patches of white (often a "bib" on the chest), or unusual colors like solid black or mottled gray.

Manky Mallard:

A colloquial term used by birders to describe these feral, genetically mixed ducks.

Fertility:

Unlike many other bird hybrids, crosses between mallards and their domestic descendants are fully fertile because they belong to the same species.

Ecological Impact

Hybridization is a major conservation concern as it can "swamp" the gene pools of rarer species, leading to genetic pollution.

Species at Risk:

The American Black Duck, New Zealand Grey Duck, and Hawaiian Duck are all threatened by mallard hybridization.

Extinction Risk:

In Florida, hybridization is the biggest immediate threat to the Mottled Duck, with estimates that up to 12% of the population already shows hybrid traits.

Lots of orchids tend to hybridize with more or less closely related other orchid species. Their identity can be tricky to establish, especially when these hybrids backcross with the parental species. In this case I'm pretty sure it's a mix of Gymnadenia odoratissima, the short-spurred fragrant orchid, and some sort of Dactylorhiza, commonly called marsh orchid. I'd love for the orchid experts to weigh in though!

Southwest Florida

USA

 

This one is a hybrid. A hybrid is an orchid created by crossing two different species or two different hybrids, or one of each.

 

The state of Florida has approximately 120 species of orchids, more than any other state in the United States. In the county where I live, there exists an orchid species found nowhere else in the world. the Habenaria quinquesta, Michaux's Orchis.

 

Phalaenopsis known as the Moth Orchid, abbreviated Phal in the horticultural trade, is an orchid genus of approximately 60 species. Phalaenopsis is one of the most popular orchids in the trade, through the development of many artificial hybrids. It is native to southern China, the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia (Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc.), New Guinea, the Bismark Archipelago, and Queensland.

 

Most are epiphytic (airplants) shade plants; a few are lithophytes. In the wild, some species grow below the canopies of moist and humid lowland forests, protected against direct sunlight; others grow in seasonally dry or cool environments. The species have adapted individually to these three habitats.

 

Possessing neither pseudobulbs nor rhizome, Phalaenopsis shows a monopodial growth habit: a single growing stem produces one or two alternate, thick, fleshy, elliptical leaves a year from the top while the older, basal leaves drop off at the same rate. If very healthy, a Phalaenopsis plant can have up to ten or more leaves. The inflorescence, either a raceme or panicle, appears from the stem between the leaves. They bloom in their full glory for several weeks. If kept in the home, the flowers may last two to three months. – Wikipedia

 

Great Blue Heron and Great Egret Hybrid ~ Fort DeSoto

 

I am not sure how nailed down the ID is on our local "One-in-a-million" bird, which is a hybrid of a Great Egret and Great Blue Heron which spends a lot of time at Fort DeSoto. When I was watching it hunt the other morning, it sure seemed to show some pretty strong Reddish Egret behaviors. Really interesting bird!

 

Thanks for visiting!
