I was searching for a residence in Lolo Thursday and I found some ponds. Â I grabbed a couple quick photos of the ducks with my Nikon P7100, and once I got home and had time to look at them there were a couple of new ones to me. Â I believe the two on the far left are Ring-Necked Ducks. Â The bill is very distinctive with the white ring on it near the end, and white by the head.
Here the one on the bottom and the one at the back on the right are Ring-Necked Ducks.
I do not recall seeing them before, but Montana is part of their summer range. Â I guess these just deeded to winter over!!
