All,

Jeff has already posted by far the best of the photos we were able to get
yesterday. A funny (but not to me at the time) sidebar on the story is that
when Jeff 1st got to the Pits and we began to talk, the 1st thing I told him
was "We will find a great bird today because I forgot and left my camera at
the house". When I 1st realized I didn't have my camera, that was the 1st
thing that went through my mind, and it bugged my all the way up to when we
found the Mottled!

Jeff was nice enough to let me snap a few photos using his camera, which I
have placed in my "Mottled Duck" gallery for TN. When I found and
photographed Jeff's Mottled last September, it was at least twice the
distance of our bird yesterday. IF I had my camera I would have gotten some
nice shots yesterday. Oh well, fantastic looks at the bird anyway.

If anyone is interested in a few more shots of this bird, try my gallery at:

Good birding!!
