I don't recall ever seeing this duck before:::A Blue-winged Teal!
Cinnamon Teals were prevalent.
It was cloudy, but dry this morning.
Those Yellow-headed Blackbirds just don't want to get too close for photos.
And another yellow bird far in the distance....American Goldfinch:
Great Egret
Tree Swallow
Canada Geese family
It wouldn't be Ridgefield without some Great Blue Heron and Red-winged Blackbird pics.
Common Yellowthroat
Singing Savannah Sparrow
The Bunnies were out and about!!!
A fun morning! I am looking forward to visiting again next week and walking the Kiwa Trail.
Great shot of the common yellowthroat. Those little guys are tough to get!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a beautiful Blue-Winged Teal! I may have to go to Ridgefield soon!
ReplyDeleteLovely outing! Love blue-winged teal and cinnamon teal! Our only sightings of cinnamon teal are so far at Bosque del Apache, NM. Hope life is good for you.
ReplyDeleteOh I love that first bunny photo with those giant ears- so cute. And the Blue-winged Teal is a beaut. Too bad I didn't make it up there earlier!
ReplyDeleteI've had the best luck seeing blue-winged Teal at TRNWR. Saw several last spring and summer and one so far this year, though I spread my outing around a bit more now, so I haven't been to TRNWR as much this year.
ReplyDeleteNice series of pics. Nice Yellowthoat. I've yet to get a good pic of one yet this year.
