Great photography Tray. I think Pintails are one of the neatest looking ducks there are. For geese, I'd say the White Fronts or "Specks" are at the top of the list too.

Spring migration it (almost) common to see them in nw/mn. Fall migration it's rare. Nice pics.
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

I appreciate the feedback, thanks for all your kind words. Nice pics as usual, Any pics of drake shovelers? Always thought those were one of the most vivid colored spring migrators. Only a Minnesota guy would ask for Shoveler pics, LOL. They are really a cool bird. Very striking and contrasting colors. Give me a little time and I will post some, they haven’t been one of my target birds this year but I have a few old ones and might go try and get some yet this spring.

Ha Ha, the shoveler legends lives!,..I would get me a springer but the federalists would frown on that! We do have a bit of chagrining in our camp for those that,..well inadvertently mis-identify! I look forward or what you might offer.
