Recently Rozanne Rapozo was down near the Gualala River when she saw this female Common Merganser fly by.

 

Just look at the beautiful reflection in the river. The tips of the wings seem to "touch."

Thanks to Rozanne for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

Today started off cold (42 degrees) but with sun. The wind has picked up over the afternoon and it's supposed to be quite windy tomorrow.
