Giggles :-)! Great photo. I’ve only seen one Northern Pintail ever and it was a “fuzzy distance” away. I like their elegant necks and bills and tails.

Thank you so much Myriam! I love their long tails, and beautiful feathers. I hope you get to see more Northern Pintails a bit closer in the future!

What I find particularly amusing about this photo is that it appears they are walking on water 🙂

This was a fresh and fun photograph of these two pintails. It makes it look like the personality of each is showing through their wordless action, Deborah! 😉

Apt title, Deborah, as it certainly looks as though the one on the right is trying to get the attention of the other bird. 🙂

It is definitely wordless! I have no words to describe what the photo makes me feel when looking at it – mesmoried, may not e corrctly spelled but that’s the word I was looking fo = s

Is the one on the right whispering some northern pintail gossip, possibly about their no good southern rivals. Lovely shot, Deborah 🙂

Is the one on the right landing, or is the water shallow. It’s a great photo. It’ looks a bit magical.

Thank you Dan! He’s sitting in the water. This part of the pond was shallow.

Thank you Dan! I am wondering if Pintails make little mud mounds to stand on like a lot of ducks do? I know they like to perch on fallen logs in the marsh ponds as well as on the little islands in them.
