Male northern pintail duck
This guy was resting at the side of a huge puddle in a farmer's field. Dapper, don't you think?
Female northern pintail
This female was hanging out with her mate. They make a handsome pair.
Off they go look for a spot to breed and raise their young
I am linking yo World Bird Wednesday.

he is one handsome bird for sure, love the lift off together.
He is handsome and I just love it how the male and female differ so much in a lot of the birds.
Love photos of birds and these are wonderful.
Beautiful markings on their feathers. I'm so aware of these small designs right now.

They are such handsome birds and interesting as their tails are very long, apt naming.
They are so beautiful! Anyone that thinks gray is a blah color needs to see these lovely shots.
Great photos of the birds. I love the colors and patterns in them!
Beautiful bird, one of my favourite "lookers".
undoubtedly some of the most graceful looking ducks...
In my opinion it has to be one of the most elegant ducks that visit the UK through the winter.
I wish them well!
Very nice...I love the perspective!
I went out to my local refuge for some bird photos for WBW and came home empty. At least you have these nice Pintails. Good for you.
Yes, he is a very well-dressed fellow! Great shots -- love the flight one, I can NEVER do that.
Fint andpar. Lite annorlunda i färgerna .Ha de gott.
Pintails are always lovely birds to see... your images are fantastic.
We get these in the UK.Our most elegant and handsome duck in my opinion.
So very beautiful. Enjoy your day!
Great captures, the first is the best!
Great captures of this beautiful duck! Another new bird to me :)
They are beautiful birds...
Dapper, indeed! Isn't if strange that as soon as there is a sizable puddle in a farmer's field if soon fills with ducks. MB
I'd quite forgotten the word dapper until now. Very fitting!
Great photos of the ducks. They are both beautiful birds.
These are fabulous shots of these birds! Love that guy's tail.
That is beautiful!!
You are invited to post your water photos here Water World Wednesday
My observation (I am not very familiar with birds) is that the male duck has a longer tail?
They are beautiful couple, great sighting. I love the Pintails.
These birds are actually amazing!
Well done!
Nice shots EG! I think dapper is a perfect description of this handsome duck.
What Larry said. :)
Brown is dapper - just as lovely as say a tux would be.
Love the side by side in flight shot!
Sweet captures!
;-)WBW!
Good looking duck.
A nice duck!
He has beautiful markings. Did not know there was so many varieties of ducks. Nice shots!
I see why they're called pintails! Beautiful photos!

The boy pintail is certainly very handsome. If I am a duck, I would fall for him.
You have some fascinating birds over there...
They are very attractive...love the inflight shot!
