Red-breasted Mergansers

A pair of Red-breasted Mergansers has been spending a couple of days on Spring Lake. We frequently see the Hooded Mergansers, also showy, but this is the first time we've seen the red-breasted variety. The pair spent the afternoon diving for fish and caused a small bass to jump almost a foot out of the water. It's encouraging to see the fish this year!
