OK, I'll bite: gadwalls, bluewing teal and greenwing teal. Also, is that a spoonbill hen fourth from the left? I notice that the beak is sort of disguised.

I think I see 6 BW's, 1 GW, 2 Greys and 1 Wood Duck hen.

BTW, you have some nice BW drake specimens. Reminds me of that discussion we had a few months ago. I asked if any of you S. LA fellows get the drakes when they are collored like that during regular season.

There's my answer. Thanks.

I could only see 10 duck bills, so I guess I'm stumped.... Oh well..


Say Hambone, that boat looks like a smaller version of the "Me Too", only without the fan tail. Man, there have been some fish caught out of that boat....

You the man Duckslayer. Actually 2 hen pintails.

6 bluewinged teal
2 greenwinged teal
2 greys
2 pintails

That hen pintail a tuff one....got to look at the bill. Really tuff in flight, I actually thought they were greys....thank goodness the pintail window was open.
