Mirror, mirror. (Lophodytes cucullatus)

Since our river is still frozen over April 2! I went looking along a stream I knew was open and found a Hooded Merganser drake swimming along. I followed in the car waiting for a clearer photo opp and then there were 2 drakes for me. The light was not great but it did give the rather nice reflections.

What a great time you had well done finding the right spot... an excellent picture this one Marianne. I love the setting too.

Are you sure those two aren't sizing each other up for a battle LOL.
