Despite less than optimal viewing conditions and the presence of duck hunters,
some decent birds were seen at Bradstreet Landing this am. I was joined by
Jeremiah Roth and Mike Sandy.
Highlights were:
Surf Scoters 2
White-winged Scoters 2
Black Scoters 8
Common Loon 5
Also up to 800 Red-breasted Mergansers & good number of Bonaparte's Gulls.
The Scoters were actually seen fairly close to the duck hunters' boat and string of
decoys which included lots of Scoters and a male Common Eider.
After hanging around their boat for quite a while, they headed out to a spot past the end of the
pier. That afforded great looks at the white wing patches of the WW Scoters.
See you on the trails,
