On a cool calm morning as the sun is rising , waiting for the chick to come out from under the wing.
A Common Loon in breeding plumage on one of our northern lakes. Just love to sit in the boat and watch them and sometimes they come in very close as this one did.

I visited the Pollinator Prairie for the first time this year. Only there about 30 minutes. Not a lot going. Sorry for so many photos, as always. :) No need to comment. A few more coming later.

Took these shots while passing and moved on.
The common marmoset usually lives in the mountain forests of northeastern Brazil but has been introduced to many other areas in South America. Found a group of common marmosets in a green park near Rio de Janeiro during my last layover...can you see the two babies on her back? so well camouflaged...
Caught this Female on a River of spawning Salmon.
Common Mergansers dive underwater to catch fish. After the chicks leave the nest in summer, the female stays with them as they grow up while males gather in flocks. In winter, mergansers form large flocks on inland reservoirs and rivers. They stay in these tight flocks to feed and court during the cold months. In migration and winter, they mix with other fish-eating, diving ducks such as Bufflehead, golden-eyes, and other species of mergansers.
These ducks live mainly on freshwater rivers and lakes. They are rare in the ocean, but they sometimes use saltwater estuaries in winter. They nest in tree cavities in northern forests near rivers and lakes.

As soon as there is a little stretch of open water as the ice recedes from the shore of Hawrelak Park Lake, the male Common Goldeneyes come in from the river and claim that small stretch of water to entice a female. They are on constant guard and vigorously defend their patch from other males.
This is my first Goldeneye of the season there, but as the ice continues to recede I hope to witness courtship rituals and combats over the next few days as more males and the females arrive.
