A Lonely Pintail

Strange, but it took me three days to identify a female pintail. She's staying in a large group of mallards in the Lopuhin's Garden. What brought my attention to her was her size (a little bit smaller than mallards), color (rather grey, with yellowish head), and voice (she sounds almost like a goose).

Pumpkin Pie & Pumpkin Pudding

I scored 8.5 of 9.0 for my first asignment in scientific writing. :) That's pretty much good! I completed the second asignment today, and I'm afraid i won't score so high this time :(
Today we undecorated our home after Helloween and finished the pumpkin.
