One of my favorite birds is the Cinnamon Teal. Partly because I see it only occasionally, and partly because it's color is so tasty.

That sounds like a nice lake and definitely a nice bird to have around any time.
Hey Wendy it's nice to get out into nature whenever we can isn't it? Especially when you can find a great spot like that near your house.
Those Cinnamon Teals sure have the color going on don't they? We were lucky enough to see some this weekend at the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge. What gorgeous birds!
Such great color. Just saw my first last week in Texas and think I liked them better than several of the area specialties.
Cinnamon Teal...sounds like something I'd like to have for breakfast!:D yummm. I know what you mean about "discovering" this little lake. I have a retention pond near my house where I started walking my dog last spring and saw some amazing water birds during migration.
I had first heard of one a few months ago and didn't get the big deal until I saw one for myself. Amazing coloring that guidebooks just don't capture!
One of my favorite ducks! You captured the bright colors well in your photo!
I love the description of its color as "tasty." You really can taste beauty sometimes; it's not just limited to one sense at a time!
Ooooo, I haven't seen one of these in years. The color looks exactly like cinnamon sugar sprinkled over hot buttered toast. Talk about tasty!
Nice Duck love the colour
