Summary[edit]

Description

A pair of blue winged teal utilizing a temporarily flooded wetland on Seedskadee NWR. These temporarily flooded wetlands may only have surface water for a few weeks to a few months each year, however they are very important to many migratory birds, amphibians, and other wildlife species. Their shallow water warms quickly and starts to produce aquatic invertebrates when many bird species need this source of nutrients for egg laying.
