Description
This is an image of a male hooded merganser taken in the small pond at the back of our property in northern Minnesota. He would hear the click of the shutter and appeared to perceive the sound as competition for his mate who was in the nest box laying an egg! He reminds me of the Queen's guard. All he need now is the strap coming down from his "hat"! A little Googling found that the hat is made of an entire bear skin!
