What kind of Duck is this?
« on: January 29, 2011, 01:18:24 PM »
He was a long ways out in the water, so I had to resort to the 400 mm lens to get the photo and then I had to crop the daylights out of the photo in Photoshop. :(

Cool pic.  Looks like a golden eye to me.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

 Specifically, a common goldeneye. Barrows have longer tail feathers and a slight crown. Good find.
