A pair of Greater Scaup getting ready to land in a local reservoir. These are on their way north to their breeding grounds. Greater Scaup, or just Scaup in Europe, breed in Alaska, northern Canada, the northern most part of Europe and northern Siberia.

These two birds are flying over the water. Anita

They are one of many duck species that stop in our ponds, reservoirs and other bodies of water to refuel on their way to their breeding grounds. Unfortunately we never see any of the little ones.
