A pair of Cinnamon Teal that were on the pond I generally call “Mallard Pond.” I have no idea why I call it this, for over the years, I have seen a large variety of species including Snow Geese, American Widgeon, Common Merganser, Hooded Merganser, and, of course, Mallards. In this photo, the male’s eye is closed, so you can’t see it’s brilliant red colour, so I have included a second photo.
I can’t wait to see my first Cinnamon Teals of the season!
