  4. 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).

  5. 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
