Common Goldeneye
Why did the cookie go to the hospital?
He felt crummy!
Interesting Fact: In winter and early spring, male Common Goldeneyes perform a complex series of courtship displays that includes up to 14 moves with names like “masthead,” “bowsprit,” and “head throw kick,” in which the male bends his head back to touch his rump, then thrusts forward and kicks up water with his feet.

I couldn’t help but picture the ornithologist sitting in the blind observing the courtship displays and thinking “Hot damn, another move I can name!” What a great Phd thesis that must have been.
Hehehe. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts with us. Happy Blogging! 🙂
