One I haven't seen before


The Bufflehead, North America's smallest diving duck. Spotted them out at Boggs yesterday afternoon. Maybe I can get some more photos today though the Boggs ducks tend to be very shy and want plenty of distance between them and anything looking like a man. Pretty bird with all that white, the male; and then the female, sporty with that slash of white across her cheek. Guess the other female is diving? Never did see a fourth.
