Hello Again, This afternoon as we drove to LaValleys in Newport I noticed some water birds that I have not seen before. I went home and got my camera to take some pics. There were 3 male Common Mergansers and 2 female Common Mergansers. They are between the dam at Summer St and Lavalleys in Newport NH on the Sugar River. I posted some pics at my blog. Again here is my link. http://emeraldsnaturepics.blogspot.com/ I had a very good day of firsts. Thank You Anne **************************************************************** To post messages, send e-mail to: [log in to unmask] Set your e-mail application to PLAIN TEXT ONLY to post messages.
