Green-wing Flyby

One of the highlights from this weekend was a Green-winged Teal that flushed and proceeded to fly circles around me for an extended period of time. Eventually it occurred to me to that when it made a close pass it was possible to get a photo. Surprisingly, a few came out.

    How nice that the Teal flew around you for a while and ever better that you were able to get some photos.

    Nice in-flight shots of the Green-winged Teal! I was lucky enough to watch several doing their courtship displays a couple of weeks ago. Magnificent birds. It’s funny that sometimes as we watch these amazing events unfold, we forget to lift up the camera to record them. Good job!
