HOODED MERGANSER (M&F Pair)

Out on the kayak on the Thornapple River. I was parked on the bank and these two glided in for a water landing.

I think this is a Red-breasted #Merganser (female or immature male), resting on a bed of see weeds. Today under the Verrazano Bridge #birdwatching #BirdsOfTwitter #BirdsSeenIn2024

This female common merganser gave me some nice photo opportunities as she was preening on this cool Colorado morning.

Chad Chaddington Beautiful. We have a pair of Merganser ducks in the lagoon. Gorgeous little things. The first pic is mine - second is not. I could get a good close up.

We are celebrating a conservation milestone – the hatchings of Edwards’s pheasants and red-breasted merganser chicks, both are first-time hatchings for the Zoo.

Lovely Merganser couple!
