Glen Grambo: While many ducks have a coloured wing patch, the Northern Shoveler said “give me two!” Add the green head, the spoon-like bill and the orange feet, and they are a package! This male northern shoveler decided to fly to the other side of the marsh to check out the foraging options!🪶

That's a pretty cool duck

One of the coolest!

Another new fact I've just learned! Thank you 🤓

You’re welcome and thanks Marina!

They have a whole lot of gorgeous color going on!

Do they ever! They are just stunning ducks!

Bonus great genus name (Spatula)

Yes! A fabulous genus name!

One of my favorites. Fantastic shot.

Thanks Bob! They are one of mine too!

My goodness. :)

They are stunning ducks!

Great picture Glen! Shovelers are brilliant ducks, especially when you get to see all their colours like this!

Thanks Dave, they are just stunning and one of the first ducks to arrive back here in the spring!

You're welcome! We're lucky to see lots of them here.

That’s great, here too!

They'll be back soon enough by us I hope.

Fantastic!
