    1. This pond is full of tons of algae... plus we're in the middle of the driest stretch on record, so the algae are condensed into a much smaller area than normal thanks to the low water levels. Posted 8 years ago

The blue-winged teal is a species of bird in the duck, goose, and swan family Anatidae. One of the smaller members of the dabbling duck group, it occurs in North America, where it breeds from southern Alaska to Nova Scotia, and south to northern Texas. It winters along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts and south into the Caribbean islands and Central America.
