Years ago, I found keeping a camera close while doing chores or running errands often allowed captures of pleasant moments unfolding.

It was a hardware run when I found this merganser aside from the others, swimming a shoreline of cattails and willow, and lightening the day’s chores and errands.

They are a handsome duck.
