That could be a problem in an emergency. Glad you got through it. It's always something, isn't it? But at least this problem didn't cost you!<br /><br />Thanks for the ID of the Northern Pintail - I think you are exactly right. I did some Google searching and came up with lots of photos. I think mine is scrunched down and you can't see the white of his chest continuing up his neck in the back in the narrow line of white. And, as you said, no tail feathers. That was quite a mystery to me, I never would have ID'd him. :) Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-45282882456516040272014-04-07T08:02:54.073-05:002014-04-07T08:02:54.073-05:00Well, at least you got trapped with a good looking...Well, at least you got trapped with a good looking guy in shorts!Dawn from Camano Islandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256146499762272641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-66960023937977386952014-04-06T21:35:47.361-05:002014-04-06T21:35:47.361-05:00I think you have all the fun!I think you have all the fun!Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418668511495166842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-8812900703923361062014-04-06T21:22:37.648-05:002014-04-06T21:22:37.648-05:00Well at least you have a sense of humor about it a...Well at least you have a sense of humor about it all!
