Kingston Inner Harbour | Northern Shoveler ______ 06_SZN8767-Enhanced-NR-1 copy

Nothing says dabbling duck like the Northern Shoveler that has a bill that is in a league of its own. The bird is often referred to as Spoonbill or Spoony for its oversized, spatulate shaped bill. Although the Shoveler is North America’s third most common duck species, I rarely have the opportunity to lay eyes on this bird, let alone from a short distance away.
