I have been trying to get a good photo of a Blue-winged Teal for a couple weeks. I think this is a beautiful photo. Their best colors show up in flight but this is beautiful.

This picture would lead you believing that these Blue-winged Teal are floating on a pond or lake. The reality is this is a floaded field and they seem to love it.

It was great to see these Blue-winged Teals in the pond at big woods this week.
So, where is the blue? It shows up when they are flying.

Last week we saw the male Hooded Merganser in the small creek near this pond. Today he was hanging out with his date in the pond. It is spring, so perhaps they are nesting nearby .. or just on a hot date.

This time it was a pair of Wood Ducks. The male has this amazing intricate plumage. It is spring and this pair must be on a date. 😂
