Blue-Winged Teal Pair by Debra Martz This pair of dabbling ducks seemed to be content as that sat on this small section of a log preening and enjoying the sun on a warm Spring day. A few stay year around in this area as it is right on the border of year-round and wintering grounds. Captured at Paradise Pond in Port Aransas, Texas. Scientific name: Anas discors

A male Green-Winged Teal enjoys the calm waters of Piper Spit/Burnaby Lake. This dabbling duck is tied with the Bufflehead, a diving duck, for the title of the smallest ducks in North America. Only at Burnaby Lake can we see these ducks literally (and quite fearlessly) at our feet, chasing ducks much bigger than themselves. Photographed in January 2015, just as the sunset was touching the waters of the Piper Spit.

An itch to go outside on a sunny afternoon in mid-February 2015 led me to my second meeting with that migratory bird, a handsome Eurasian Wigeon, catching a bit of sun (and throwing me a come hither look in this photo) at the local pond. This small European duck pops up occasionally on the coast during Pacific Northwest winters, usually mingling with other flocks of its much more numerous American cousins, but the gold and cream head feathers of the male Eurasians makes them easily identifiable.

The male Blue-winged Teal is easily identifiable with its bold white cresent in front of the eye and a good sized black bill. The powdery blue shoulder patch is visible in flight along with green secondaries of the wing. They breed in much of the northern USA and Canada migrating as far south as South America. But many are perfectly fine to stop in south Texas for the winter.

A rainbow of colorful pencils, sketched on paper, then melted away with water drops. A very vibrant design, perfect as a gift for pupils, teachers and artists!

The female mallard is a mottled brownish color and has a violet speculum bordered by black and white. The crown of the head is dark brown with a dark brown stripe running through the eye. The remainder of the head is lighter brown than the upper body. The bill is orange splotched with brown, and the legs and feet are orange. Thank you for looking at my Photography!!! Cynthia

Head portrait of a male mallard duck Anas platyrhynchos

The female Blue-winged Teal is not quite as distinctive as the male which is easily identifiable with its bold white cresent in front of the eye. The female only has a small white patch between lower eye and bill but does have a dark eyeline, white eyering and a large dark bill. The powdery blue shoulder patch is visible in flight. They breed in much of the northern USA and Canada migrating as far south as South America. But many are perfectly fine to stop in south Texas for the winter.
