All right. You Florida guys have to stop this. We northerners are stuck with an occasional duck shot between snowflakes... (Nice shots, by the way...)

I've never seen one in flight before. VERY nice! I usually see them (when I am in Florida) with their beak pointed straight up-- I know they think they are invisible that way... blending in with the grass. :)
