This morning, SFO Group 2 went first to Dryden Lake, where there was a
surf scoter at decent scoping distance. Other highlights were fly-by
osprey and great blue herons, many buffleheads, some lesser scaups, a
pair of ring-necked ducks, and some ruddy ducks; red-bellied
woodpecker and eastern
Oh, I forgot to mention the horned grebe at Dryden Lake hanging out
