This fellow was less camera shy than most I find.

Beautiful bird, wonderful shot

[Tricia Kano]

Beautiful. I really like his head. Do you know what kind of bird it is?

[Kerry McCarthy]

@triciakano It's a hooded merganser. This is the male. As part of their display they can expand their head feathers to look "hood-like".

[Tricia Kano]

Thank you Kerry. I forgot to mention that I love his reflection.

[Jennifer]

Wow...they are hard to photograph because they move so quick! Great capture!

[Milanie]

Fabulous! Love that reflection and your detail is terrific.

[Ross Walker]

Nice catch. They are so unusual, and this is a good portrait.

[Andy Mcculloch]

Lovely shot.
