The most Bufflheads I have ever seen!
My first time seeing Scaups! They formed a small group with some Buffleheads and dived under the water. It was hard to tell how many there were since they kept disappearing below the surface at different times.

I didn't see him waddle or swim, he just stood there.
More mergansers at Lake Simcoe. This was my first time seeing a male!

A lonely goose. It honked and honked, but all the surrounding geese just ignored it. Poor guy.
This one was unique. It had a white ring of feathers around its head. I've seen a robin like it before, I wonder if they're the same individual.
