 Suncor Trail and around Lambton!

3 Northern Pintails were in the channel at the Suncor Trail.

The Pintails were mixed in with Black Ducks and Mallards before all the birds took flight.

Black Ducks in flight. The speculum (iridescent blue patch on wing) is bordered by black. The males and females of this species are almost identical in appearance.

Lots of orange feet!
