Harlequin Duck - Learn a Bird - Episode #37

Ever hear of a "Mousebird" that swims in frigid ocean waters in winter? Don't worry- most people haven't either. The Harlequin Duck is a tiny, colorful little sea duck (even though it breeds in fresh water habitats inland). It's known as a Mousebird b/c of the high-pitched squeaks it makes...kinda like a mouse.
..
A group of ducks is known as a "raft," a "paddling," a "brace," or a paddling.

Amazing video, also here's a question I've always had. Do Baltimore orioles come around the Massachusetts/Maine area ever? I've always wanted to see one but ever have. Love the vids!

I think so I feed them in Boston and the cape in the summer. They like grape jelly and oranges.
