You have photographed several species of waterfowl recently, that we don't see posted here very often, so another great image and capture, Axel!

Excellent capture of this fascinating breed showing their wonderful beak adapted for their diving to feed in mussel beds and the like, Axel.

Wow- a rare sighting for a close view- wonderful shot! I used to look for them in Rockport, Mass. but never got close to getting a decent shot.
