Taking to the water today with pics.
A duckie silhouetted in the golden glow of sunset.

Center photo is a Common Merganser. At a distance they’re often mistaken for a loon.

A pair of Hooded Mergansers. They’re so cute, a little larger than a robin. The photo posted yesterday shows a mommy hooded merganser with her huge troupe of babies! She doesn’t look big enough to have produced all those eggs for 20 babies!

The last photo I’ve posted before. 2 male Hooded mergansers with their chests inflated!
They try to intimidate each other with little croaking noises as they bobble back and forth with their chests all puffed out!
