This Asian Teal showed up in the Eugene area. Local birders say it's very rare to see a wild one in North America.

Jerry,
I guess you can say that you had good catch light for the face. Cool image!

Such a beautiful bird! I know my father (a world-renowned birder) must be on his way to visit this guy also. Great catch, Jerry.

What a gorgeous duck and a fabulous image. The lighting is outstanding. The DOF and the way the water looks really add to the scene. Way to go.
