Splashy Departure
This is a pair of hooded mergansers ((Lophodytes cucullatus) at a secluded pond in Albay, Georgia. It looks as if they are taking off, but they were just moving to the other end of the pond. I think that I may have been the reason for their sudden movement.
"The hooded merganser is a diving predator that largely hunts by sight while under water. Most studies report that its diet varies according to circumstances, usually being dominated by fish (44 to 81%). In addition, it feeds on aquatic insects (13 to 20% of its diet) and other aquatic invertebrates such as crabs and crayfish (22 to 50%)." - wikipedia.org

Looking forward to this weekend’s trip. It’ll have been a six day work week but I’ll hopefully have good time with the pelicans like I did last December.

Sometimes it's all about timing. A simple moment that feels like a quiet story playing out in the sky. A fleeting scene, but capturing it makes it last, perhaps forever.
