Duck backed House Finch (Carpodacus mexicanus)

Ok, for my 1000th post, I decided to pull this one out & share even tho the lighting is awful. It's always fun to catch one in flight & see what it looks like, for me the norm is a fluffy blob... but I just couldn't get over how odd the wings looked, like he had an extra wing in the mid of his back! Then when I looked closer, it appeared to look like a duck's head! :-O Hope you can see it too, otherwise I'll know I need to cut back on my drugs! :eek: :bounce: ;) ;)
