Northern Pintail Ducks
Day 354 / 365
What’s another name for a clever duck?
A wise quacker!
Interesting Fact: Like the Mallard, the Northern Pintail breeds in a variety of habitats all across northern North America and Eurasia. Also like the Mallard, island populations have splintered off and evolved into separate species. Two closely related forms can be found on Crozet and Kerguelen islands in the very southern Indian Ocean, known as Eaton’s Pintail (Anas eatoni) ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Northern_Pintail/lifehistory )

Yes it does. Imagine if they actually were known to do a staring contests. 🙂 Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out my work. 🙂
A great scene and indeed, the left duck seems to have started the staring competition. It looks quite eager to win it. Fantastic picture and so well intepretated. You really have a great way of looking at things and capturing the right moment.
Thank you very much, that makes me very happy to see that you enjoyed my work. He does look like he is going for it but the female on the right might be really good at it so she just turn her head because she know she will win. 🙂
