Скачать или смотреть Bufflehead ducks at Lake Jacomo

The Eagles are here, but they are not nest-bound at this point. They spend a lot of their time patrolling and hunting in the area. They come and go, and sometimes I don't see them for many days.
During this time, I try to capture some of the other bird life that visits the lake during the wintering months. One of those is the Bufflehead duck. It is one of the fastest flying ducks in North America (45 mph). The male is white with an iridescent coloring on their heads while the females are mostly grey with a black head. They are diving ducks. They hunt small crustations and fish. I truly enjoy watching these ducks as they 'bobble' up to the surface, swim a bit, then dive back down into the water.
