Cinnamon Teal

Cinnamon Teal are noted about every other year during spring migration.  Most sightings are between mid-April and mid-May.  Single males seen on 2001-03-21 and 2009-04-07 were notably early.  Our latest sighting was a pair seen on 1995-05-23.  They are sometimes in the company of Blue-winged Teal.

Cinnamon Teal are seen most often in the slough, the lake, and the ponds at Marymoor West (a.k.a. the Rowing Club).
