jwl Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 those are cool pics, love the way the camera captures the action alos cool to see the wood ducks in the other pics, I am a trustee for a conservation club and we build and set out wood duck nesting boxes in a few areas, I have yet to see on, but did have good sings this season when we went to check and clean them..there where 2 hatched eggs there;s litterally hundreds of water fowl right now on the upper Niagara by my place.

Sinker Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) That first shot of the bufflehead is awesome!!! Cool little bird them.......make a great target!! Theres something fishy about the landing hen mallard though. Take a close look at her bill. I think that may be a mallard/black hybrid? Notice the bill on the next hen pic (orange/black)? I can see some white on the speculum of the landing bird though, which leads me to believe its a hybrid?

Handlebarz Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Brandon the only thing I dont like about your pics is that I keep forgetting to check here to see them. Dang you always amaze me with the quality of the shots you take. I hope you get home this summer and we can get some musky shots. Keep the pics coming and I hope that I remember to check them out.
