Re: World Famous RL

Cool RL got to make the trip and get immortalized along with duck … we almost took off to Lewiston Yesterday but we had to much going on with deadlines … yeah I have those even in retirement:-) We went out to the Hubbard Recreation Area and the small reservoir was packed with waterfowl. Trumpeter and Tundra Swans and lot’s of ducks including one that Ben Pierce had to ID for me. A Mallard Hen with a hormone imbalance. I also had a lens to camera hiccup that took me a while to fix and the birds were a long ways out but stayed up to 3 AM going through hundreds of waterfowl to get things identified.

Re: so, everyone (like us) has one of these beasties terrorizing their feeders ?

Oh Larry, the tales we could tell.  At the risk of repeating myself in this group, there’s a Cooper stalking our backyard at dusk.  The first sound we hear is the quail alarm, followed by a flurry of small feathered things scattering, a terrific view of the Coop zooming in and snatching, then silence.  It is an Oscar performance.  Who needs TV?
