Huh. It was clearly with a group of two females and one other male mallard. Baldpate is what your talking about. I've never seen one. Maybe he's only able to find all the mallards we have around and no other Baldpate's. Okay I got a new kind a duck in town. I see it's also called an American Wigeon.
Well I did once see driving west of Grand Junction a formation of Canada geese fly overhead and on the very end of one line of the V was a mallard flying in with them as though he thought he was a goose. I guess when your a duck you can pick and choose who ya want a hang with from time to time.?
Being on the road for 20+ years now Moose have migrated their territory further south over the years I've noticed. I've seen em no more then a hundred miles north of the Colorado & New Mexico border within the last five years. Once in a while some dummy will get to close with a camera and the Moose will toss em up a tree by it's antlers. With all the people now out here that head to the mountains on the weekend I'm sure we'll see a fatality caused by a moose sometime here in the future.
