Common
Goldeneye - Bucephala clangula
The
common goldeneye is a freshwater duck. Whenever there is no ice on
the lakes, they are seen there. They also spend their time in
saltwater. The drake is a fancy looking white duck. Its back is
black. It has a green head. Its head looks very large and that is why
the Aleuts call it the lake's big head. Its feet are yellowish
black.
The hen
is grayish. Its bottom side is white, and its head is
brownish.
The
goldeneyes are easily scared away. All it takes to set them off
flying is the noise of a running motor. That is why they are hard to
hunt.
They
are identifiable easily when in flight in good weather. When they are
in flight, they look whitish and their wing beats can be heard
whistling over head. They used to be plentiful around here, but
nowadays that is not the case.
The
goldeneyes spend their winters here, and come springtime, they go
north to their nesting grounds. After laying their eggs, they return
again in the fall.
