I see a banded mallard drake. Maybe a YOY bird, hard for me to say. Still not seeing anything in #7. Is there a band on one?
 
I've only shot one banded bird - a web-banded YOY snow goose. Took a grad student out last year and he shot is first goose - leg banded Canada. I guess I just don't live right :)

Congratulations! Were they long distance birds?
 
Nice job! Was the mallard immature? He didn't quite eclipse. Either way, great job!

I think the mallard was central Wisconsin and the goose was pretty close to Hudson bay without looking it up.
 
Bad picture, but good day. Tired pup.

I need to learn to take some of your "bad pictures" what camera and lens are you using if you dony mind me asking.
That shot was with a Nikon D7200 and a kit lens (18-105). It isn't a bad set up, I just missed focus and didn't take advantage of a better light angle.

This one was the day before with a D750 and 70-200 2.8. Little better.
