I encountered this beautiful pair of Blue-winged Teal on Lake Parker early one morning. These pretty ducks will soon begin their northward trek to their breeding grounds. I have never observed nesting Blue-wings in my area. Audubon’s confirms that New York state is the southern edge of their nesting area here in the east.
On a personal note; since returning home from Florida I have suffered a particularly bad case of the flu but thankfully today, for the first time in a week, I feel that I have returned to the land of the living.

These are beautiful birds indeed! The markings on them are amazing.
Wonderful photo.
I am glad you are feeling better.
That flu seems to be particularly violent this year. So glad you are feeling better.
I have enjoyed all of your pictures of the various fowl you saw. Good stuff.
This is a very nice photograph of birds I never have seen. Nice.
I don't think we have these Salty... and if we do I have missedthem for sure.
Hope this flu sorts itself out soon.
I would have guessed the pair to be mallards...guess I need to be a little more observant. Sorry to hear you got the flu, glad to know you are feeling better.
Very nice image, Dad.
Love this shot Salty, colours and markings top notch.
Gosh...the flu seems to have hit a lot of us bloggers!! I'm glad you are feeling better.
