Re: Duck?
The head and neck shape looks like a Mallard, non breeding male has an olive green bill, Can see the white border on the wing and the white tail. Plus the American black duck would be way out of range.

Re: Duck?
Non breeding Mallard … notice the white on the tail that you would not see on an American Black Duck … of course it would be well out of it’s normal range also.

Oregon Field Guide
I know I’m watching too much tv, but at least Oregon Field Guide isn’t political. Tonight one of the 3 stories was an effort to restore Burrowing Owls on the deactivated Umatilla chemical weapons storage facility. I think the program repeats on IPTV during the week. Burrowing Owls are not birds that I see very often (and they were way cute).

Re: Dry Lake
Dry Lake is south of Nampa.
Head south on Hwy 45 to to Missouri. Turn right. Turn left on Dry Lake. Continue to Stagecoach and turn right. You will see the water on the south side of the road.
