This shot begs the question...is the hen in the middle a blue-winged teal or a cinnamon teal? :-)

Very nice shot, by the way!

Thanks, Mike. I'm pretty confident it's a female cinnamon teal.

Thanks for your reply. Since you were watching their behavior, I'd bet on you. However, it is nearly impossible to tell the hens apart.

Wow - this gives a true picture of the huge wingspan of these giant birds. :-)
