Very distant and barely identifiable Long-tailed Duck and White-winged Scoter shot in HD (high-definition) and presented here with 2 levels of quality: whole frame or partial frame; original speed or slow motion. Seconds are playback (not download) durations. 720 is a count of vertical lines. MB affects download time. THE FIRST TWO "avi" CLIPS CLOSE THE FIREFOX BROWSER ON SOME MACS, AND SIDES MIGHT BE CUT OFF IF YOUR BROWSER WINDOW IS SMALL. A workaround is to download the clips to your hard drive before playing, find them, then double-click either clip to engage QuickTime (on Macs) or Windows Media Player (on PCs).
