This one I saw! Single individual BUFFLEHEAD diving right outside the big window (near the bubbler). Either female or 1st winter male, methinks, prominent cheek patch and small white patch near wingtips (folded) but not a breeding male.
Went out to check on what sounded like Towhee song (we have a live mic feed to our suite) but couldn’t find it, for the second time. Glad someone else reported Towhee here a couple days ago. It seems to sing “Drink your Tea-tea-tea” so I wanted to see I was hearing a variant Song Sparrow instead. Could still be the latter.
