The young female Surf Scoter that the Eskers found yesterday afternoon,
and the Hohman's saw last evening, was still in the Ohio River off Virginia
Avenue in Marietta at 2:30 this afternoon.  It was in the river toward the
downriver end of Virginia Ave., just before the big right turn where it
heads toward Route 7. It was with some Redheads and a couple Lesser Scaup.

   The bird was far enough out in the river to be in West Virginia at times
and closer to shore and probably in Ohio at others.
