Greetings to all :D

    These shots where taken a few weeks ago at East Humber. There were 3 male hooded mergansers struttin' there stuff and showing off for the females to see which one would be the lucky one. Very neat to see.

Enjoy

That is very neat! If your camera date is correct that is more than a few weeks ago. ;)

Wow, my favourite bird x 3!   :D

Must have been really neat with the "whirring blender" sound the males make.  8)

Your right Greg, they were taken more than a few weeks ago, hard to keep track sometimes of all the photos I take.
My apologies to all, will keep better track next time.
Thanks for the heads up.

Very cool!! I haven't seen these birds displaying before.  Sure must have been something to watch.

Nice shots... the synchonized heads of the Hoodies is great.

 Nice to meet you at humber today (08-feb-09), hope your shots turned out as well as these...   It's hard to get close to the hoodies, i like the two shot here of the males showing off nice work.
