#4 Hooded Merganser

These small ducks with yellow eyes light up winter birding on freshwater ponds and protected saltwater bays. The males fan their distinctive black-and-white crests while courting the cinnamon-brown females. In the summer they nest in tree cavities, and their ducklings depart the nest by jumping all the way down to the ground within 24 hours of hatching.

The patch itself and the design and embroidery is really beautiful. That being said, i feel these patches are misnamed. They are NOT iron-on patches, they are purely sew-on patches. While the packaging and online description does say "sew on for permanence", the term "iron on" really shouldn't even be in the product description at all, as it doesn't give the wearer any sense of just how weak and temporary the adhesive actually is. I took great care to iron these on with lots of heat and steam, only to have them all fall off about 2 hours into their first wear. I ended up hand sewing them on which is fine, but it was time consuming and may not be for everyone (folks with arthritis for example) which is why I do feel the term "iron on" should be completely removed from this product, with more language and guidance for the customer around just how temporary that adhesive really is.
