So since it's raining here, I'm stuck at my office desk pretty much all day. I was thinking about studying my ABA standard and was wondering how I could make studying more fun. Then I thought I would start this thread!
Basically, I will post a description of one bird from the ABA standard and you guys can guess which breed it is! Once someone has guessed it, I will post another bird's description.
So here's the first description! No cheating please!
