Northern Shoveler (Coots)

Northern Shoveler (Coots)

This is a duck I don’t get to photograph very often. However, it is one of the most common in the world, only Blue-winged Teals and Mallards are more abundant. I believe we are the winter vacation spot for them.

This male liked the company of Coots, and Grebes.

BYW, this bird was the model for the cartoon character Daffy Duck.
