Bob - can I assume the great schnozz on this duck gives rise to the name? I am in your country for the next couple of weeks and looking forward to seeing different flora and fauna than back home!
Hello, Bob! Beautiful captures of the Northern Shoveler. I hope to see our winter ducks return soon. Have a happy day and a great new week ahead.Eileen
Not quite as striking in eclipse plumage as in full breeding plumage, Bob, but nevertheless still handsome, and that bill is a tool to be reckoned with! My very best wishes - - - Richard
