Just me rambling about birds, books, bunnies, or whatever!
I really have no clue, but the flying one on the left looks like a mallard.
I say all three are mallards. The top two are males.
Not sure- I'm thinking maybe some Golden Eyes in the water, 2 mergansers and Susan might have the mallard right.Happy New Year's, Laura- and best wishes for a happy and healthy 2008.
They sure aren't flying rabbits!Happy New Year from the bunch of us!
The one in the middle is actually a flying antelope head. You can't fool me.
I'm with Dave.
Dear Laura, I believe they are all oneQ
Watch me get them ALL right:DUCKS!
Okay then! I guess maybe a hint is in order (although Dave was right - the flying ducks are all mallards).There's three there in the water - all the same variety, but not mergs or goldeneyes.(Not much of a hint, after all)
The ones in the water look like canvasbacks.
John: Of course you're right. I'd been looking and looking for them - found them finally down the street! Silly!
Going by tail shape/contrast, speculae, the little bit of orange foot visible on the centre bird, and the slight yellow showing on the bill of the far right bird, I guess mallards in the air.
