Happy Birthday Brian. A great hunt to be sure and that Cinnamon Teal looks good enough for the taxidermist.

Destry, the cinnamon teal have really started showing up over the last few years. They arrive late and stay long after the season too. We will leave water in the ponds through the first week of April in hopes of further habituating them on this particular ranch.
On the youth shoot we hosted last year, it was reported that hundreds of cinnamon were hold up in the 'closed zone'. Some of the kids shot a few and had never seen anything like them before. Very cool colors. |

Boy that takes me back. Cinnanmon teal always leave early and come back early, at least in Calif. They nest here but are never in the bag as they leave by mid Sept. and won't come back until April. Once as a lad I dropped for cinnamons out of a flock with one shot. That was in the lead and 870 days and those birds zigged when they should have zagged. Only problem with them (and blue wings) is they resemble a spoony on the table. Bring me the greenwings!
Happy birthday! |

Brian,
If you continue to hold a few during the season I'll expect an invite one of these days! As you know, they're one of only a very few species of North American ducks I've never shot. My current list is pairs of: Cinnamon Teal King Eider Black Scoter Common Eider Harlequin Barrows Goldeneye Black Belly Tree Duck Fulvuous Tree Duck Then singles of: Drake Redbreasted Merganser Hen Florida Mallard
