Not a Merganser, a Goosander

We took a walk down the River Almond and watched a trio of Mergansers  Goosanders fishing. This one caught a pound note sized fish after the photo, and was immediately chased around the river by the other birds until it had swallowed its catch. 

The local community group have done a lot of work to improve the walk way and river side in recent years and SNH / Scottish Water have been undertaking projects to clean up the water course throughout its 28mile Lothian journey.
