A ducky day...
Enjoyed my afternoon, went down by the river to see what I could find..I done good !!

A Male Common Merganser...
He took off so I managed to get him flying...
Here are 2 male Common Merganser and the 'brown tufted' female too..
I managed to get this couple as they were taking off too, a male Hooded Merganser ( female in the front)
Although this one reminds me of a male and female Mallard, the purplish head on the male is throwing me off, and I can't see it in my books, any ideas??

I don't know what those bottom ones are but you sure got some great shots!
ReplyDeleteThey are mallards...the purple is just the light!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe they are Mallards. Sometimes I've gotten photos of Mallards and with just the right light, their heads look purplish instead of green - but what do "I" know? Nice shots.
ReplyDeleteOk, thanks Ted and Mona, mallards they are!!
ReplyDeleteNeat to see the purple anyway!!
