Another Hungry Merganser

We found another hungry merganser shopping for lunch. This one caught a fish.

Hunger is not a Game if You are on the Menu

The high point of the day has to be when I managed to catch this hooded Merganser with a freshly caught frog in his mouth. Normally, I'll include 4-6 photos in a blog post so that your daily bite is modest and I don't bore you to death. I prefer to spread out the boredom and let it creep up on you over time.

However, today, you're getting a longer posting that forms a sort of slow motion rendering of this bird having lunch. Yes, I could have made a video, but since I really prefer the still image, this is what you get.

Hooded Merganser

As we were leaving the beach and walking back to the car, we passed a bit of water where a couple Hooded Mergansers were diving and looking for food.
