She was essentially cream-colored, much lighter than the typical female Ruddy Duck. Go check it out! Get yours today!

The homeowner, Fred Jordan, has been hosting visiting birders who heard of the bird through word-of-mouth since November. Many thanks to Fred Jordan for being a wonderful host with great enthusiasm for his awesome avian visitor. Third of all, the bird that was first seen on 30 October is, as of this blog posting, STILL THERE!

Another 170 are in captivity, many of them breeding stock for reintroduction efforts. Most of the deer and duck hunters I know lament the loss of an old growth forest or flood-plain swamp as much as I do. Larry Jordan Mar 20th, 2011 at 11:48 pm Thank you for that clarification Vickie. Likewise for the anglers.
