On the lake this afternoon I observed a flock of 11 Red-breasted
Mergansers-five were males in breeding plumage. With them were three
Scaup sp., probably Lesser.
Farther out on the lake, partially concealed by mist arising from the
water, I saw another flock of ducks which I could not definitively
identify. However, based upon shape and size, I believed they were
Northern Shovelers.
