Just a couple pics from cold mid December here, unfortunately for taking pictures the light is low most days and especially in the shade. However we are enjoying some nice cold water ducks, especially Hooded mergansers, that this year are hanging around nearby, usually there is a pair or two around but lots more this year. Common goldeneyes are here and quite a few Common mergansers. Eagles are around, and were feeding on coots, but mostly fish eating now, quite a few are along the rivers and larger lakes. Scenic but getting a bit cold...the lake will likely freeze in the next week or two some ice around the edge. Kingfisher with a minnow this morning hitting it on the perch as they do before tossing up and catching headfirst to swallow, classic.
