Field Notes

Description:

Male in breeding plumage and female.

Habitat:

Partly frozen shallow spring pond in hardwood forest. Also flew into and perched in the trees.

Notes:

We usually get a pair stop by every spring. Tried to get a photo of them perching in the trees, but there were too many branches in the way.
