Merganser Trifecta


I spent the last bird count day in Rhode Island, visiting my folks. Wandered down to the cove to see what was around. Merganser city! I can usually count on seeing a couple red-breasted mergansers out in the bay--today over a dozen (mostly in the distance, but you can definitely make them out if you click on the photo above--closer views below).


And for good measure, hoodies, also in the dozens.

So all three mergansers make it to this year's count.
