Enjoy a peaceful glimpse of Hooded Merganser ducks gliding across the pond at Autumn Harvest Orchard in Norfolk, Connecticut 🦆. These striking little waterfowl are known for their fan-shaped crests and elegant movements—making them a favorite sight on our organic farm.

Fun fact: Hooded Mergansers are the only merganser species native exclusively to North America, and they’re expert fish hunters thanks to their excellent underwater vision. Their crests aren’t just for show—they’re used in dramatic courtship displays!

At Autumn Harvest Orchard, we grow and sell only fresh, USDA Organic Certified produce, and we’re proud to share our land with such beautiful wildlife.
