He kind of looks like Tom who lived at our lake. He was an excellent flier even though he was pretty big, so this one might be, too. He's got that trim, fit look to him.

I have to be a rebel here. I think she's a hen Muscovy. It just doesn't look like a drake to me at all. Her feet aren't that big, her body fits a hen more than a drake(I think drakes are "buffer" rounder), and if it was a drake wouldn't its crest be taller and more "feathery"

I mean heres my drake.

The OP's Muscovy just fits the hen better in my opinion...

Thanks all! I am going to try to get him/her in to the yard.

I agree on its a hen. Feet arent always a given on them but the caruncles arent bold enough to be a drake unless hes really young.

It could be a hen, as there is nothing to compare it to. Catch it, then you will know what it is. It will hiss if its a male and a kind of a quack if its a female.
