Subject: [southbaybirds] Green-winged Teal courting
Walking along the Palo Alto Baylands trail paralleling the airport runway today I got to watch Green-winged Teal courting.  Reminded me of Ruddy Duck courtship, only cuter, with a bigger repertoire of dance moves.  Some short video clips are in the eBird checklist (and no, I didn't have a tripod).  I sadly didn't get a clip of the group that swam together in a tight circle, one behind another, taking turns displaying.

Good luck on your next adventure, Pete
