  • The first bird is a Common Merganser.

  • Hi nickkrete, thanks for the comment the first bird is what we call a goosander Mergus merganser, you guys may use a different name, Mergus serrator, Red breasted Merganser is not as heavily built a more rounded head shape rather than ovoid, distinctive dark flanks and a dark streaked rufus breast, I hope this helps dispell any confusion

  • nifty. looks like soon there will be little ones from all those nests.

    we have grebes in alaska! also loons, cormorant and merganser. "fish ducks"

    have you ever seen one up close? - they have teeth like a shark!

  • Thanks for the comment, some of the grebe footage was taken last season.

    We only have Red & Black throated Divers/Loons over here, The cormarant are common & mergansers gooseander we call sawbills for the reason you have stated!
