Great Goldeneye. I saw a pair of these for the first time this year. There were many female common mergansers on the other side of the lake yesterday, all fighting over who should be on the top of a stump. They were getting downright mean over it. I wish I had a video on the spotting scope, it was quite the show.
Walaby, It is funny watching ducks. I too, sometimes can "read" their minds. It is funny to say outloud what you think they are quacking. We once watched a male goose nag his spouse to get back on the nest. All she wanted was a few minutes to stretch and preen and eat. He was having none of it. We were translating the honks for some friends who were watching. We were all in stitches after a short while.
Here is a picture of an almost squirrel proof feeder. I like that he looks like he is hanging from his tail like a monkey.
What do you think he is saying?
