Ducks have very good eye sight for movement and detail. So if you are wearing a black hat with a background of snow they will see it.
I am just now getting back to duck hunting. But years ago I was out every weekend duck hunting. My brother and I tried experiments to see what would spook ducks. We found they can see your eyes while they are flying by at 60+ yards and any sudden movement as well. We never wore camouflage in the old days, just earth colors. And we shot our limit many times wearing blue jeans, blue or black ball cap and a green or brown shirt. However we stayed low in the blind and as they set their wings to land we avoided eye contact with them.

So I don’t think a black hat of any kind would spook them if you stay still. Think of it this way; you’re looking down for danger, what’s that black thing moving around? Most predators are brown, tan and black, a natural camouflage.
