Goosander (f)

Scientific name: Mergus merganser.

 

The streamlined goosander is a handsome bird and a great fisher - its long, serrated bill helps it to catch and hold its slippery fish prey. It nests in riverbank trees, but can be seen on lakes and reservoirs in winter. Info: The Wildlife Trusts.
