Field Notes

Description:

It is always nice when you are able to capture both male and female. This pair of blue-winged teals were spotted eating at bottom of the marsh. At times, all you could see were their tails sticking out of the water. The male still has some seaweed hanging from its bill.

Habitat:

St Marks National Wildlife Refuge, St Marks, Florida
