Watch this pair of hooded mergansers, fishing in Cougar Creek Park:
Handsome. He knows it, too.
Gone fishing.
"Look what I caught!"
"Oh! Is that for me? How sweet of you!"
"No, it's my fish. Go catch your own!"
"He ate it! I can't believe such rudeness!"
"In that case ..."
"... there are other fish in the sea.* Just as handsome as you, and bigger, too!"
*I think she actually said, "... ducks in the water," but I've translated the idiom, not the literal words.
I've playing with a microscope today - inspired by your pictures and looking at things like the eyes of moths - so intricate.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the Mergansers.
ReplyDeleteThe male is beautiful.
fantastic photos!
ReplyDeleteMark, does your microscope include a link to the computer and a photo function? I'd love to see those moth eyes up close.
