A trio of hooded mergansers.

Still hoping for that super crisp shot, but the mergansers are at least giving me the opportunities.
Half a dozen males and as many females have settled into our pond.

Delightful capture...

The natural colors of the mergansers and the way the light is hitting the water and giving it those lovely colors is terrific. Fav

[KWind]

Such interesting looking birds. Great capture.
