Despite diligent searching, the whereabouts of the Prescott Harlequin went unknown today, nor was there any sign of the Barrow's Goldeneye. Only the Long-tailed Duck was re-found, by the slips close to the bridge.
For the second day, a large raft of C. Goldeneye (perhaps concealing the Barrow's!) drifted downriver toward the second marina, and engaged in what almost appeared to be synchronized diving. They would travel for a bit in a line, then seemed to gather, or even circle, in one spot, before diving in large numbers. I'm wondering if they were "herding" a school of fish; or perhaps just following one.
