The Hooded Merganser is found across southern Canada and into the United States. Male "Hoodies" flare up their white head crests when threatened or trying to impress females. « December 2014 | February 2015 » | Bird of the Month Archives | Dereila Nature Inn Home > Bird's Nest Lounge > Bird of the Month top
