Today at Aquatic Park in Berkeley, Jean & I also saw all three merganser
species. The male hooded merganser was in his accustomed place in the
middle pond, on the east end.
We also saw _two_ female hooded mergansers swimming together in the big
pond. We first saw them from the pier on the east side of the pond, then
they seemed to be swimming along with us as we walked north. We lost
them about where the playground is.
We also saw ten or twelve red breasted mergansers here and there on the
big pond.
Them we saw a common merganser near the place where they have bikes for
disabled people.
We also saw a lot of the common suspects. 28 species in all.
