Black and white flash with a pop of iridescence 💧
The Bufflehead may be small, but it dives big, vanishing beneath the surface and popping back up like nothing happened. One of the most underrated ducks out there.

Bufflehead
Who's popping up next? It's the #bufflehead diver finally found a place to surface! Burnaby Lake, BC Canada
Eye to Eye - Female Bufflehead. North America’s smallest diving duck, weighing only about one pound (approx. 450 grams) and measuring about 13–15 inches long.
Photographed March 24, 2026, Buffalo, NY

Photo: Three ducks in a pond all facing three quarters forward right. At the top left of the picture is a female Bufflehead, notable for the white stripe on its cheek. At the bottom left edge is a female Mallard noted for its intricate pattern of light and dark brown feathers. At the centre right is a male Mallard, with its green head and yellow bill.
A lone female Bufflehead was visiting the small pond at Lelem Park, which usually hosts about 15 - 20 Mallards and 6 Wood Ducks.
At UBC, Vancouver, BC.

Lots of Buffleheads on the lake yesterday. I caught the sun through the water droplet on this drake’s bill just as he resurfaced
