Corey Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) Not any help but at first glance I thought gadwall. I ran thru Photoshop to clean up and sharpen, didn't help much. Ran thru Merlin, result was least grebe. ? If you ever come to Las Vegas you can knock horned larks and burrowing owls off your nemesis list.

Cinnamon Teal would be quite a find. But why are these birds not Blue-winged Teals? Also what does GISS stand for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
