Hooded Mergansers in Inyo County are uncommon from early Nov through late Jan when they become rare through early Apr. Birds have been reported from Death Valley National Park 2 April, 1 Jun (a sick bird who had been there since 27 Mar) and 12 Jun so they can move fairly late but it certainly is unusual.
