Refollowing people is going to be a pain… I guess we’d better have some ducks in the meantime, and then I can reintroduce myself having shifted servers…
This #FiveDuckFriday we have four #TuftedDucks and more importantly a majestic #Shoveler, which is the #DuckOfTheDay
Ein Löffelenten-Paar dümpelt in den Sonnenuntergang. Ausschnitt und ganze Landschaft.
Kurz bevor mir die Finger wegfrieren, heben für einen kurzen Moment doch noch beide Löffelenten die Löffelschnäbel aus dem Wasser.

#NorthernShovelers have a large number of color morphs depending on sex, season, age, and sometimes even region.
This Shoveler is swimming in the calm ponds of #MINWR.

Moin! 0 #bewick's swan on my patch, but some fancy #ducks:
#teal, #widgeon and #shoveler
#skylark's and #SongThrush are singing.
Still many #cranes and great white #egrets around.
More #WhiteStorks returned.
Spring has sprung: +16°C

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!
Birding yesterday was both serene and clamorous around Tehama, Butte and Glenn Counties.

Im März war sich sicher, die #Löffelenten seien nur auf Durchzug. Heute waren sie immer noch da. Pärchenweise balzend, immer rein uns raus aus dem Schilfgürtel. Wenn die hier brüten, verbringe ich den ganzen Sommer an meinem Homezone-Teich!
