I was happy to see the Gadwall, first time I saw any this close. And never before in my closest lake. And he was alone, no female. Strange! They are usually pairs.

The fieldfare are here but not as many as usual. :(

Linking up with the following memes. My thanks to the hosts:

  8. Gorgeous feather pattern on the gadwall - I can see why you would be excited to observe this handsome duck! Surely he should be able to attract a partner!
