Sighting

A female of each that seem to stay together for nice comparisons in plumage color, bill & head shape. The Lesser Scaup has stronger white at the base of the bill compared to the Ring-necked Duck, which has an eye-ring, pale at base of bill, and a white ring near bill tip. A male LESC is also present and a Clark's Grebe in immaculate adult plumage.
