As has already been reported, the Long-tailed Duck is still on the river by 
the aquarium.  When I saw it a little after 1:30, it was just SW of the 
Speer Blvd bridge, between Centennial Park and Fishback Park.

The weather was completely miserable this morning and I had decided to just 
stay in.  I hadn't slept more than an hour after my night shift, I was 
getting over a cold, it was snowing, cold, and there was heavy fog.  My 
camera lens doesn't work well in low light, either.  Add all that up and it 
was a perfect day to sit on the sofa in front of the TV.....and then the 
sun came out for a moment.  So here was my dilemma:  Sick, tired, cold, 
wet, foggy, snow, low light conditions for my camera VS 6 minutes of sun 
and a pretty bird.  What would you do (he asked in his best Liam Neeson 
voice)?

I need some kind of intervention, because it wasn't a contest.  Proof of my 
weakness/obsession/mental situation below:

At least I can go back to bed now.
