Sandy, thanks for reporting the scoters. They are still there this morning and I was able to see them for the first time.

I had a flock of at least 15 Black Scoters at the Alma Water Treatment Plant, including 3 adult males. Thankfully I got there early because half way around the back pond I saw a police officer drive in and put up the red flag. The shooting range is being used till 8:00 this evening so no civilians can go in. Always look for the red flag in the back left section of the plant. Of course I had to leave.
Hopefully they’ll be there tomorrow.
Other ducks included Red heads, Ring-necks, Lesser Scaup, Northern Shovelers, and a couple of Ruddy Ducks.
