There were 11 No. Pintail with Blacks and Mallards along the shoreline at Seneca Lake State Park in Geneva today. A nice group of about 60 Common Goldeneye were offshore. Heavy waves, rain and constant diving prevented study of a rounder headed female with a fairly extensive yellow tip to the bill. Probably a young female common but worth looking at in calmer water.
