Female Eurasian Goosander ( Mergus merganser ) - Signs of Autumn !!

A very beautiful persecuted ducks amazing birds. I love watching a group hunting our river they look like penguins from above as they cooperate to round up the brown trout .I can understand why fisherman don"t like these but wow what birds . Their called sawbills for a reason look at that bill !! They disappear locally about April to raise their young in the wooded valleys and lakes they use holes in trees to lay their eggs. But come Autumn they return to hunt and fish.
