It has been a while since I've devoted any time to some #bird #Photography or much #birding at all.
Today, following up (at last) on tales of a #WanderingWhistlingDuck having set up shop at one of our local lakes, we dropped by after my rehab session.
Naturally, it was pouring with rain.
Now anyone who tells you that it is "nice weather for ducks" - it isn't. They are not fond of going out into the pouring rain any more than we are.
However, there is a wildlife centre at the end of the lake the duck was reported to be at, so we popped in there. Turns out there was a #Noongar language and culture in-service training course for teachers going on, but we only really saw them when they came out onto the veranda to eat lunch.
Searching the paperbarks out in the lake, we spotted large numbers of #PinkEaredDuck s, lots of #GreyTeal several #Shoveler s , and a small group of #FreckledDuck s. Then @leece spotted something - next to the Freckled Ducks was something else. It was only present for a couple of minutes, but she managed to snap a couple of shots of the Whistling Duck through the rain, while I got shots of almost everything else.
After, I did a bit of post-processing on the shots, and here we are.
All shot on #NikonP900 and postprocessed in #Snapseed .

Northern Shovelers are easily identified when in their breeding plumage. But this was Oct in S Texas, so they looked very different in their non-breeding colors and patterns.

Kurz bevor mir die Finger wegfrieren, heben für einen kurzen Moment doch noch beide Löffelenten die Löffelschnäbel aus dem Wasser.

Not only did I see my first Northern Shoveler today, but I also learned that shovelers are in the genus 'Spatula'.

Dozens of #SandhillCrane flying into a marsh filled with more Sandhill cranes. From #SauvieIsland, just north of Portland where the #WillametteRiver flows into the #ColumbiaRiver. We were fortunate to be there between rain showers. We also had excellent views of #BaldEagle, #HarrierHawk, #Kestrel, #SnowGoose, #Shoveler, #Widgeon, #CanvasBack, #Coot, #Swan, #Egret, and #GreatBlueHeron.
Sound up for the Sandhill cranes!
