If we see one even half as well as you did this one, we'll be ecstatic.

This winter has been real weird, and will like as much not be repeated. <br />Not just same day...these birds were like 15 minutes apart.

Green-winged Teal? NO WAY! Let me get out there ASAP.<br /><br />I too am looking forward to the next few months of birding and birds.<br /><br />Great post.walkerazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04689565292584470461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791077723521794200.post-47965508692549036042015-03-11T21:51:13.092-07:002015-03-11T21:51:13.092-07:00Crushy BTSP...I miss them.
