Although not too common in Mississippi, we see Common Goldeneyes occassionally - I've only taken one goldeney.......to see what the heck it was, cause I couldn't identify it in the field......'never seen one up to that point.

Those look good.
A couple of your Pics show summer plumage. I would like to see a Ruddy with the redish body, would make a nice Mount. By the time they get down here, they are just brown like the hens.

By the way, I believe that the photo that you have marked as a Hen Ruddy, is actually the Male in winter plumage. The Hen doesn't have the pronounced white cheek patch.

GoldenEyes, are more common here than they once were.

I didn't see any Molted or Tree/whisteling ducks in the Photo array?

God Bless you

I like "Mr. Hollywood" for spoonbills. But, to go along with that I also like to use "Tom Cruise." he's always just showing up to make an appearance, come check things out and then he is gone....
