Hooded Mergansers Mating

The following series of photographs were taken as a pair of Hood Mergansers flew into a wetland area. Once comfortable the female elected to mate with the male. A few of the frames are not in numerical order but are in sequence as the mating proceeded. The omissions are due to the camera being set at 5 frames per second and the photographer saw no need in over duplication of the Mergansers natural actions.
