	Common Teal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Common Teal or Teal (Anas crecca) is a common and widespread duck which breeds in the northernmost areas of Europe and Asia.
		It is distinguished from drake Green-winged Teal by a horizontal, not vertical white flank stripe, and thin buff lines on its head.
		It is a common inhabitant of sheltered wetlands with some taller vegetation, such as taiga bogs in the breeding season, and usually feeds by dabbling for plant food or grazing.

		(1959), Chapman (1960), and Teal and Teal (1969).
		Teal and Teal (1969) state that clams and crabs are the principal foods of marsh mink in autumn, and Wilson (1954) reported that fish occurred in 61% of the digestive tracts of mink from marshes of northeastern North Carolina.
		Teal (1962) considered the important detritus-algae feeders to be fiddler crabs, oligochaetes, periwinkle snails, and nematodes among the deposit feeders, and Modiolus demissus and Mamayunkia aestuarina among the suspension feeders.

		Eurasian Green-winged Teal: Bold creamy lines on the face outline the base of the bill and extend over and around the green patch on the side of head, as well as outlining the under side of the green ear patch.
		The border is white on Eurasian Green-winged Teal, narrower at the base of the wing and wider toward the wrist.
		The sides on Eurasian Green-winged Teal often appear paler because of the coarser gray and white wavy lines on the feathers, visible at close range.

	GAR-FISH - LoveToKnow Article on GAR-FISH (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		This bird is one of the smallest of the Anatidae, and has gained its common English name from being almost exclusively a summer-visitant to England where nowadays it only regularly resorts to breed in some of the EastNorfolk Broads, though possibly at one time it was found at the same season throughout the great Fen-district.
		Slightly larger than the common teal (A. crecca),the male is readily distinguished therefrom by its peculiarly-colored head, the sides of which are nutmeg-brown, closely freckled with short whitish streaks, while a conspicuous white curved line descends backwards from the eyes.
		The labyrinth or bony enlargement of the trachea in the male garganey differs in form from that described in any other drake, being more oval and placed nearly in the median line of the windpipe, instead of on one side, as is usually the case.

		The Common Teal, or Eurasian Green-winged Teal, a Eurasian subspecies of the Green-winged Teal, is recorded in small numbers in Washington in most years, and sightings have become more common, especially in the late winter and early spring.
		The Common Teal is currently considered the same species (although a different subspecies) as the Green-winged Teal in North America.
		In eastern Washington, Green-winged Teals breed in the Columbia River Basin and the northern river valleys, especially at the confluence of the Okanogan and Columbia Rivers, Potholes Reservoir (Grant County), and Lake Lenore (Douglas/Grant Counties), and can be found in these and other wetlands with appropriate habitat throughout the year.

		Contemporary "experts" have changed the descriptive vernacular name to Common Teal, probably because the little ducks are known simply as the Teal in Europe.
		Named for the brilliant, iridescent, green speculums of both sexes, the rich dark-chestnut head of the resplendent drakes is embellished by broad, iridescent bottle-green bands behind the eyes that are bordered with yellow.
		If ashore, the teal may fly to water, where they regroup and swim in tight packs, or fly over the surface in close formation in roughly circular courses until the predators suspend hunting.
