A female Common merganser leads three males up and out of the open water at the Auburn Outlet Wednesday afternoon. A migratory bird, Common mergansers are often the first waterfowl to return north in the spring and the last to move south in the fall. They usually migrate along major rivers, lake chains, and coastlines during day and overland by night. Female common mergansers lay an average of 9-12 eggs.
