This male merganser (and its mate) showed up at the river last night just as I was getting ready to leave. I think he is very handsome. Maralee
Common Merganser
Face to Face
I came face to face with this duck at a pond today. He didn't seem the least bit intimidated. Maralee
Mallard
While watching the Osprey the other day, this mallard (and its mate) walked right in front of me. They were almost too close to get a shot. Maralee
Duck on a Log
This beautiful duck was standing on this log in the river just enjoying the beautiful day. Maralee
Ring-necked Duck
There were several varieties of ducks on the river. This ring-necked duck was the first one I saw. They are a diving duck and a bit smaller than a mallard. I love the markings on his bill.
