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.

We drove up to Grand Lake St Marys this week to see what kind of birds we could find. It was not super productive. We did see a few eagles, and this pari of American White Pelican. They sure stand ou aginst the blue sky.

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. 😂

I tried to get closer to capture a better photo - I overheard the orange bill guy say, ‘Act natural,’ but they all bolted when the paparazzi showed up!
It has been a while since we saw a American Black Duck. The males have a yellow bill. They were just floating around on this fishing pod at Garbry Big Woods Reserve.

You get very different colors when the mallards are in the sun. Love these photos.
