Male Bufflehead
Buffleheads the smallest diving ducks in North America; they breed in the northern boreal forest laying their eggs in old Woodpecker holes. We in Ct. only them in the winter when they are looking for open water. The male has a striking black and white pattern and on sunny days at just the right angle you can see the rainbow iridescence on the Drake's head.
