Sharp Beaks and Baby Ducks

Did you know the Common Merganser's bill functions like a built-in fish grabbing tool? They have over 100 sharp, backward-pointing projections, know as "serations", on their bill to help grip fish.

  3. They are indeed, Thank you! There are just as soft as they look too! During my summer internship my supervisor let me hold one that someone found in the road. They were able to find the mother too!
