Colorful female Common Merganser duck stands at attention at Brooks Falls
The female Common Merganser duck at Brooks Falls is exquisite to watch. Its coloring stands out like the color tones of a fine painting. Its beak points at full attention and a shaggy crest adorns the back of its head. An elegant sight.
