The Confrontation
In frame 1 (upper left), a male Northern Shoveler confronts a Blue-winged Teal. In frame 2, the Teal responds, and the Shoveler backs off, looking startled. In frame 3, the Shoveler turns away, but the Teal keeps coming and actually bumps into the Shoveler. By frame 4, the Shoveler is in full rapid retreat, with the Teal in hot pursuit.
That’ll teach him!
