Hooded Mergansers refound for Outdoor Wednesday


This is probably the first pair of Hooded Mergansers I had seen this spring a few weeks ago. I hadn't seen them since until today. Thry were standing on the edge of ice beside an open pool of water right beside the road.
The male Hooded Merganseris a striking handsome duck I think.
