What Bird Is That Forum

Just revisiting older stuff and sharing thoughts I didn't take time for back then.

This was taken at a farm pond near the house. Maybe it demonstrates NRWS can't read, or maybe they can and just don't care.

I think there might be some confusion here. 'No Trespassing' rules don't apply to the property owners, and these guys know who's land it really is.

I couldn't find photos for the past few weeks after searching and searching all week for them, but this week's bird popped up right near the top of the very first page I looked at. Taken back in Oct 2018 while we were sitting out in our previous backyard.

Wood duck pair perched in the trees this past winter in Scottsboro Alabama.

Quite a few to choose from this week but this has always been a top favourite, from April 2019.

Really tough to choose so added a couple in Overload. This one from a brief spell of adding frames (usually tried to match the color of the frame to a color in the photo).
