Wind today was bitter but put birds in tight. Always good company.

Banded as a hatchling in 2020 in of all places, North Dakota.

Unbelievable. What a journey for that bird. Thanks for sharing and congrats again.

I was actually shocked that it was banded there. I assumed all our pintail were north south migratory.
Another weird thing about her was there was almost Zero color or almost a rust color on her wings. Not you normal pintail coloration.

The birds that spend any time in Skagit county will get the rust color pretty quick from the mud fields.  It stains them pretty good.  Even the snows show up with white heads and by mid season they all have rust colored faces.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
