Looking through Cookie's recent stuff, in a light mood today, and this one just hit me right.

Titled:
I Know It Fell Somewhere Right Around Here.

Reminds me of instances where I'm changing flies midstream.
Have a good one,

She does good.

Caught a nice fish today, and it was this big.

Good stuff 1minute, and as usual great pictures.

That duck is lying!

Ross's? Snow?

I'm not good at identifying geese, or ducks, or lbb's (little brown bird, that's a technical term for you non-birders )

Great pics as always

Geno

Ross's above. Shorter bill, their mouth appears to close completely and they have a warty like surface on the bill nearest the face.

Below are a couple Snows (not the greatest pic), both a regular and a blue phase. Beak is more stream lined, and they look almost like they have lips because the bill does not quite close tightly mid-length. Also body size is about 1/3 rd larger than Ross's.

Another couple snows


And a common and blue phase Ross.


Blue phase birds are rare here in the Pacific flyway. Like 1 in 5000 birds.

Very common in the central flyway.
