Is it a breeding Common Merganser? I’ve only ever seen the non-breeding if that is it. 🙂

Beautiful bird and perfectly orange accents. What kind of bird is this? Certainly not one that I have seen. 🙂

The featured bird is a domestic goose. The other is a Common Merganser. Quite interesting birds.

They are so awesome. He’s handsome and I love her punked red hair. This was taken in the Spring. We get to watch their mating dance, but I think they go elsewhere to have their babies.

That is very cool! Maybe someday I can see that for myself. We kayaked right beside some females last September in Grand Tetons. It was awesome! 🙂

The orange pops so well on these birds. It does make you wonder if it increases their chances of being eaten!
