17 January 2006 - Leonabell Turnbull Birding Center, Port Aransas, Texas Here is the previous Blue-winged Teal preening. This uncropped photo shows details of the wing pattern: powder blue coverts which give this species its name, and dark green secondaries. Extreme closeups such as this offer fine detail at the cost of reduced depth of field. Here the tail is slightly blurry. Who can identify the second duck in the picture?
