Hi Ron,
I downloaded an interesting FREE bird identifying app and had it conduct a search based on your photo, geographic location, date , etc.
Pretty interesting. The app named "Merlin" is provided by Cornell University. It can also identify birds by recorded sounds.
So, at first try it tentatively identified your bird as a "King Eider" or a "Wood Duck". (See 3 attached screenshots)
There was another possibility that it could be some rare bird which you'll see, but I lost the name and wasn't able to replicate it.
But I don't think it was a "black swan" which would be so fitting for these times.
Talk soon,
Steve
