Looks like someone is putting on a show.
Mating season means showing off and this Male Hooded Merganser is doing a fine job of letting the other males on the pond know he’s got what it takes to win the ladies over. Denver, CO.

Hi, these ducks are sure fun to watch. The males bob their necks up and down and then hold them up as high as they can to demonstrate top male status. They also make noises and dance around while doing so to show of to the females. Fun stuff. Hope you are hissing a great day.
