A Face Only a Mother Could Love
Ok, I really thought I had only one more pond photo...
......and then I looked outside.
Right in front of my door by the pond stood this fellow...
Come on...
You have to admit it.
This is NOT a pretty bird!
Ok.. the bird is pretty... but the face..????
This is a face only a mother could love!!
(damn! I know the feeling well!)
And no, once again, I don't know what the name of this bird is...
Addendum: My sister-in-law wrote me that this is a Woodstork! (yep, he looks "woody" alright!)

What can I say, though...you're right :P

A 'woodstork', huh? Did you make that up? ;-)))))))))))))) *snort*

That's quite the collection of waterfowl you got 'round the joint! Thanks for sharing - your photos are amazing.

Looks like a vulture married a stork, and this is the baby they had together.
hi CJ: glad you enjoy the pictures!
Hi Donna: exactly! lol (pretty sad huh? hahaha)
I am envious! What a great spot to watch water fowl!
gavin: ok then we can be envious of each other.. I stayed a bit at the foot of mt rainier..and I'd much rather be there in the woods!!!
I don't know, Pat... I think he looks kind of cute... Even with the face...
Ah, well, no accounting for taste, is there? ^-~
I agree with you, ugly face and head but a beautiful body. Helen
indeed -- a wacky face. wacky.
Wow - definitely only a mother could love that face (or a serious birder!)
I have to say - you have much better neighbors now - when they take flight it isn't from the police!
