Maybe it's just a typo

This may not fit in perfectly here, but I don't know where else to put it, and given the fact that the contributors in this thread are highly interested in ducks and geese I might have a chance to get a qualified input to the issue here.
I shot the male wigeon in Denmark in December 2017 with the extra black bar on the wing (the right hand wing).
Wonder if anybody has seen this before? I never have, but got the idea that it could be a special feature in a part population somewhere. Any comment will be welcome.
By the way, I can't open the link that opens the thread here as it needs a pass word !
I am not looking for a "hunting forum" - I am just trying to find out, whether this unusual wing is a random mutation or is typical of some part population somewhere. Please tell me if there should be a better forum in here to get an answer. I just thought taxonomy would be the closest I could get to get an answer as it has a lot to do with plumage.
