I took this photo at Grand Lake St Mary’s. This is a Common Merganser. Yes, I could be wrong, but I know its not a duck that we normally find around here. Look at the hooked bill and how it sets in the water.
This is a ‘diving duck’. It will dive, going completely underwater while looking for food. We show it dive several times, and for a long time. Very cool!
