Wednesday, I caught some images of a Mama Merganser and her brood in the Little Lehigh:
After a bit, she gave them a little "white water" training:
Then she rounded them up and continued downstream a bit:
But soon it was time for practicing how to go back up the step:
They can really swim fast! And then there was time for a final family portrait.
By the way, the little guys have already learned how to dive!
