Was that a wild bird? I see it has it's toenails still, but could be a taxi trick :)

Nice job Alyssa.  We shot one on the Chehalis about 14 years ago, it acted just like the woodies.  As far as I know, it's still in the taxidermist's freezer (he was the shooter).   :bash:

 It's an Asian wood duck. They have been raised in captivity and of course some escape, so there is a wild population, but still very rare. Farm ducks useualy have their nails clipped.

Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.
