[SBB] Goldeneye at Shoreline

[Philip Terzian <[[email protected]]>]

Hello everyone, and Happy Holiday.

 

I went to Shoreline Park in Mountain View today and was lucky enough to come upon a Common Goldeneye (breeding male).  He was not very interested in having his picture taken, so I waited until he went underwater to have a bite to eat.  I rushed up to the edge of the water and when he came up I took his picture.  You can even see the drop of water that is still hanging on his beak.

Last year I took a photo of the female of this species.  The object of his affection, I suppose.

I hope they are able to get together soon.  They would make a handsome couple.

 

Best regards,
