Female Hooded Merganser.jpg

Florida

I shot this Female Hooded Merganser with the 200 f/2.8 and 1.4x TC. The male never came close enough for me to capture. I will be going back with my long lens soon.

A male Lesser Scaup from today:

Canon EOS 350D ,Canon 200 f/2.8L with 1.4x TC
1/4000s f/5.6 at 280.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Both the male and female of the Hooded Merganser are beautiful. Haven't seen a male since the late 70s when I stopped duck hunting.

Sharp head feathers. I have never seen one of these. Almost like a porcupine.
