Special Photo Feature
Handsome Duck at Riverfront
This handsome little Bufflehead drake duck, a beauty in black and white was spotted along New Glasgow’s riverfront Wednesday morning. Bufflehead are fascinating little creatures. They are exceptional divers and, unlike other diving ducks, can take off from the water without running along the surface.
Bufflehead ducks take advantage of the rising temperatures and open waters along New Glasgow's Riverfront as the trees from Carmichael Park and the Samson Trail reflect in the mirror like river.
