These are tiny, but fully grown adult Bufflehead Ducks--- 2 males and 2 females. They're usually hard to capture with a camera because they're either chasing each other, or diving totally underwater for surprising lengths of time in order to feed.

These are tiny, but fully grown adult Buffleheads. They're usually hard to capture as they "run" all over the water chasing each other-- or diving completely underwater for surprising lengths of time to feed.
