I have just located a first winter drake Barrows among Common Goldeneye. A week ago I observed this same age/sex class about 5 km W of my current location. Perhaps the same bird. It is roosting and is one of the closest goldeneyes. Great views!
Location: I am parked in the Johnstown United Church parking lot, which is 200 m E of the USA/CAN bridge.
