Merganser, Lophodytes cucullatus |
| Date: 12 June 2001 |
| Locale: Burnsville, Dakota County,
Minnesota |
| Photographer: Kendall W. Corbin |
| Comments: Hooded Mergansers have not
been previously recorded as breeding in Dakota County, Minnesota.
Thus, this photograph documents a breeding event within the county.
The wooded pothole habitat immediately south of the Minnesota River
is the type preferred by Hooded Mergansers and Wood Ducks, both
of which are hole-nesting ducks. |
