Were there not two separate birds observed - one of each?

Interesting chat on Kansas Birding. As it appears a lot of us are calling an orange billed female Goldeneye a Barrows when, in fact, it is a (rare) orange billed Common Goldeneye.

It wont let me attach a pic.


I updated my list and others might need to also.

Happy Birding,
