Buffleheads

Sunday, May 2, 2010,

Back in March, my friend Sue, of the Four Harbors Audubon Society, asked me if I could get some pics of Bufflehead Ducks. So I decided to paddle the Lower Carmans River where it passes through Wertheim Refuge. This was not exactly a chore as I really like this stretch of river at any time of year. As a matter of fact, I went two days in a row. I also know from past experience that this is a good place to find Buffleheads.

Here’s one.

Here’s two.

Here’s a whole herd of them.
