Cold, Snow and wind makes a guy dream of Spring. It can’t get here fast enough.
Green-wings are one of the toughest to photograph, just so quick.

Stunning as usual. Tray!
That quickness makes them hard to hit with a shotgun, too. At least for me!

We have a few that nest here, but not near as many as blue wing teal. I saw them on the islands in the Aleutian chain nesting.

Very cool. I remember the first time I hunted puddle ducks I felt bad when I retrieved it and was in awe at how beautiful they are. I love the winter.

They are fun to shoot at cry


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

Stunning photos. You should work for National Geographic.

We get some nesting here, but never see a lot during breeding season.

First duck I got when I was about 12 years old. I believe it's the only greenwing I've ever got.
