Ruddy Shelducks come in pairs~June 23

I can't say today was the most exciting day. It's the day before the last day, so everything just feels a little sluggish. 

Today's bird is the Ruddy Shelduck. When I first noticed this bird, I was very excited. They have a great, almost copper coloring, and love to float around the wetland in pairs. I always assumed that there were only a pair that inhabited the wetland. Today, however, I was looking at the last site, where the ducks usually hang out, and two Shelducks became ten. Who knew I had a whole flock of Shelducks?

Surprise!
