Well not just any two birds. A mom Merganser and her lone chick. They were quietly sitting on this log as I paddled by in my kayak. I was able to snap a few pics before moving on in leigh lake GTNP.

Storm Over The Tetons
With a Storm brewing over the Teton Range we pulled our kayaks to the bank of the Snake River and were treated to an wonderful view. We snapped a few shots and then high-tailed it down stream to avoid the approaching rain. Grand Teton National Park, WY.
Mergansers
A trio of common mergansers heading off into the early evening sunlight on the snake river in GTNP, WY. Sounds like a great way to start the weekend to me.
Duck On The Menu
Looks like a nice little feast of Merganser leg for this Bald Eagles dinner judging from the bill barely visible in the grass. Photographed while kayaking on the Snake River in GTNP.
Along the Snake
Kayaking down the snake river in Grand Teton National Park always presents numerous opportunities to observe eagles and osprey. This immature bald eagle was hanging out in a wonderful old tree along the shoreline in an area with little current allowing me to get a photo or two before I was moved along on my way by the river.
Someone to look up to.
These guys seem to be buddies. In fact, more often than not, I see the Pelicans hanging with the cormorants on this island while kayaking at oxbow bend in Teton National Park.
Strolling Along
Female mallards out for a morning stroll. I wonder what they are talking about. Photographed on fine summers day while kayaking on Leigh Lake in Grand Teton National Park.
