Literature needed for hybrid ID (1 Viewer)

[Joern Lehmhus]

Hi all,
I am sorry to bother you with this, but don´t know anyone who has a copy:
for hybrid ID I need

Tipling, D. 1989. Gadwall × Chiloe Wigeon hybrid resembling American Wigeon. Birding world 2: 10

It would be great if anybody could send me a pdf?

As suggested , there seems to be something wrong ?

All I find is

https://britishbirds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/article_files/V61/V61_N04/V61_N04_P169_171_A029.pdf

which concerns wigeon x chiloe wigeon

He says he doesn´t have it any more, as he cleaned up a lot of things recently...

So, if anybody could help, I´d be gratefull.

Thanks to Steve Gantlett at Birding World I now know it was not a full article but a black and white photo by David Tipling, The photo shows two hybrids of which the male looks very close to a bird from the Netherlands, which I can only see as a Gadwall x Chiloe wigeon . As that Netherlands bird was not a captive bird, the parentage there is also unproven, but it must have a gadwall and a wigeon species parent, and there are known gadwall x eurasian wigeon and known gadwall x american wigeon with certain parentage from captivity and those differ in several features (but share some others with the male bird in question) , we can be fairly sure that suspected parentage was correct in that case- and also in this old case here...

here are the photos from the Netherlands:
