Hooded Merganser - Species #130

Hooded Merganser - Species #130

Middle Creek WMA, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania - December 30, 2011.

Hooded Mergansers are one of my favorite species of waterfowl and I was happy when I got the chance to photograph them. I lied down in a nice cove where they like to hang out and waited. About 5 minutes later 8 birds flew in with some nice light.

Merlin - Creek Hill Road, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania - January 19, 2012.

I found this Merlin for lifer #198. He flew in and was eating a bird for a while. It's cool to watch them soar over the fields really fast.

Not the greatest photo, but I'll put it up for my bird album. Hopefully I'll be able to replace it soon!

This is a boggy area on Oseetah Lake in the Adirondack State Park, NY. A great place for birds, and some amazing fishing nearby too!
