Observation details
While walking along the bank of the river I flushed this Common Merganser from ditch that carries excess water from marsh to river. It appeared to have limited ability to fly. It may have been hiding form the eagles in the ditch under some overhanging foliage. After we recovered from our mutual surprise the duck made it's way back to hide in the ditch.
