Almost no wind today meant conditions for viewing at Stewart Park this
morning were much better than yesterday, although light fog and shimmer
limited distance.
A new arrival of the season was a single Common Goldeneye.
In a flock of Aythya was a single much darker bird that was the shape
and size of a female Black Scoter. However, it didn't seem to have the
light patch on the head that I would have expected. Was the Black Scoter
seen in recent days consistent with this?
