I wish I had put three sparrows on my last list instead of three shearwaters.

This leads me to my third twitch for the celebrated Falcated Duck ( Anas falcata ) at Colusa National Wildlife Refuge in January of 2012.

What was worrisome, though, was a lack of ducks. Eventually we found a couple of White-winged Scoters , small numbers of Long-tailed Ducks , and not much else. The dabbling ducks disappointed too, with only Mallards , American Black Ducks , and a couple of Gadwall showing. No snipe, no meadowlark, no pipit.

Of course, other ducks have red heads too but for whatever reason Aythya americana got the name and now has to live up to it with unlimited sex appeal. Save that for the duck butts.
