The Common Goldeneye (Bucephala clangula) is a medium-sized diving duck of the genus Bucephala.  Common goldeneyes are territorial and aggressive.  They have elaborate courtship displays.  The common goldeneye is named for its golden-yellow eye. Adult males have a dark greenish glossy head with a white circular patch below the eye.  Their back is dark and they have a white belly and neck. Adult females have a gray body and brown head. Their legs and feet are orange-yellow.  The breeding habitat of the common goldeneye is in the rivers and lakes of the boreal forest across northern North America and northern Russia. They nest in large tree cavities made by woodpeckers and from broken off limbs.  They return to the same nests year after year.  The goldeneye is a migratory waterfowl and spends the winter in the protected waters of the more temperate latitudes.  Their diet is met by foraging underwater for crustaceans, aquatic insects, mollusks, fish eggs and aquatic plants.  This female common goldeneye was photographed while swimming at Walnut Canyon Lakes in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.

Tot 30-39mm, Ab 25-32mm, HW 19-23mm.\nOur most delicate Lestes, which is normally easily separated by its statue and coloration, although some Iberian populations recall L. barbarous.\nHabitat: A wide variety of seasonally dry shallow and reedy waters in the south, becoming more critical in the north-west, where it is most abundant in heath and bog lakes with peat moss (Sphagnum) and rushes (Juncus).\nFlight Season: Northern populations mostly emerge in July, flying into November.\nDistribution: Widespread in Europe, although seldom the dominant Lestes species. Distribution recall L. barbarous, and also tends to wander like that species, though rarely in similarly great numbers.\n\nThis Species is to be seen in the describe Habitats, but not as common as L. sponsa in the Netherlands.

A heron, its reflection shimmering in the water, stands poised at the water’s edge, patiently awaiting its elusive prey.
Identification:\nTot 57-66mm, Ab 39-49mm, Hw 37-42mm.\nIn flight often confused with the related and similar small A. mixta. Ranges less far north, but also migratory and may be invasive in good summers.\nMales are often observed when making low patrols over drying wetlands, showing their noticeable bright colors. The males vivid blue eyes and abdomen and largely green thorax sides are especially distinctive.\nHabitat: Prefers standing waters that dry up over the course of Summer, often overgrown with low rushes, bulrushes or reeds.\nFlight Season: On average, emerges earlier than A. mixta. Seen mainly from May to August, especially in the later months.\nDistribution: Seldom abundant, and only permanently present around the Mediterranean, but scarce in much of Iberia and North Africa. Hot summer weather may lead to influxes further north. Occurs east to Mongolia.\n\nThis Picture is made in a Fen area in Flevoland in half August 2022 by high Summer temperatures.

Seagull at the Steinhude Sea. Water bird. Larinae.
Tot: 45-50mm, Ab 30-37mm, Hw 33-38mm.\nIdentification:\nVery similar to O. cancellatum, with which it is found especially in the south-east, and as far west as France. However, it is sleeker, paler and more contrasting. Named for the contrasting white appendages of both sexes.\nBehavior:\nLike O. cancellatum, male often sits on open ground near the water, making very fast, low flights over the water.\nOccurrence:\nDistribution is patchy, but the species is generally not uncommon, stretching to China and Japan.\nHabitat: Open Ponds and Lakes.\nFlight Season: From the end of May to mid-September.\n\nThis nice Skimmer is photographed during a Vacation in France in May 1990.
