     Thanks Wallace for the report on the four Surf Scoters.  I had to wait 
until late afternoon to shake free, but I managed to add them to my life list 
around 4 pm.  They were in a tight group near the dam.  If I read my Sibley's 
correctly, there are two 1st winter juveniles, one adult female and one adult 
male.
     I thought maybe you were getting a little sloppy when I counted only 163 
Hooded Mergansers, but I found the 164th one near the four Gadwalls :-)  Also 
I counted 13 Ring-necked Ducks, and 4 Redheads (one of them female), and 2 
American Coots.  I didn't see the Ross's Goose, but I didn't go to the 
swimming pool side, nor did I wait for the evening influx of geese.
