Cecil, how would you feel about 60-70 these birds showing up on one of your ponds? \:o Every so often they will stop for a short time on our place while they are migrating back to their summer range in the Canadian Rockies. I have never actually seen them eat a fish but I did have one try and snatch a LMB that I was reeling in once. The two pictured here are both males (only the males have the barnacle looking thing on the top of thier beak).
