We're seeing surprisingly low activity from our #HOME #HoodedMergansers #LophodytesCucullatus so far: just two nests incubating, with three #WODU #WoodDuck #AixSponsa nests in various stages. Perhaps the go fast-go slow spring here in the North American mid-Atlantic has reset their clocks. The Wood Duck hen in box #62 (see photo) is trying to incubate 20 eggs.

We all need the #Peace and #SolaceInNature that hikes in #Nature and at #WildlifeSanctuaries offer. I hike regularly seeking #Solitude and #Solace. After 36 years in #HigherEd, I have become a bit #Apanthropic in my old age. These are from an interaction between #HoodedMergansers at #OxleyNatureCenter. They graced me by allowing my presence for several minutes (and too many photos) as they went through their courting dance. These #Ducks depend on #Wetlands for survival.

This part of the #MorningCommute never gets old (but it is the 1st five minutes!!) at 6.20 a.m.
Also definitely #Ducks but camera shy #HoodedMergansers
