It was a wonderful day birding in Nagano! A bird paradise - the Suwa lake! Beautiful lake was decorated with those wonderful waterfowls... got 3 new lifelist!! : )
three new species! No kidding... Cameron.I was doing a little dance on the river bank. Oh...and she is the girl we just met on the lake, beautiful like one of the swans! : )
Awesome, Mark!!! Is that Anas acuta on the first photo? It looks very much like it, but hard to tell (I am beyond rusty with my birding skills nowadays).
I am a biologist grew up with a fishing rod in my hands. I have been fortunate enough to embrace my love of art and science in my career. Most of my free time were well spent in the nature, either studying bird behavior or chasing variety of fish with fly rods. My favorite art medium is watercolors, I love the natural and spontaneous feel created by watercolor pigments. I am currently a post-doctoral research fellow at Harvard University. Welcome to my website. Mark

Bingo! Vlad,
You are good! It is acuta.
I never had a chance to view a wild bird that close... I guess those ducks never see the word "duck hunter" : p
