I love it when we see new-to-us birdlife on the creek! I believe this is a male & female pair of Hooded Mergansers. Aren’t they the cutest little things?

What striking and beautiful birds. I’ve seen these birds before only in books. How lucky you are to be able to see them in ‘person’. Wow!
I get so excited when I get a new species too. We just built a pond last year and have delighted over the ducks and geese stopping by. The other day my husband yelled for me to check out a new bird and it was a red winged black bird at our feeder. A first time visitor. I love your visitors…what a lovely head!
twinville – I’d never seen them before, now I think they’re my new favorites!deana – we need to get a feeder up so we can have some non-water fowl. I love red winged blackbirds!
Wow, What a pretty bird.Kristi
Those are nice looking birds. We have hundreds of red wing blackbirds, they are a feeder pest! Want me to send you all some?
