Merganser On The Banks Of Spring ...

“In order to see birds it is necessary to become part of the silence.”

     ~ Robert Wilson Lynd

        ~ 1879 ~ 1949

~ Irish writer, editor of poetry, urbane literary essayist & strong Irish nationalist

A female common merganser soaks up the beauty of a mid-April afternoon on the banks of the Saucon Creek just off the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.

The common merganser or goosander is a large seaduck of rivers and lakes in forested areas of Europe, Asia & North America. The common merganser eats fish and nests in holes in trees.
