Tait, Andy and I saw 13 Surf Scoters and at least 1 Black Scoter female
today - maybe 2 Black Scoter females and maybe a male Black Scoter as well
- at Hayden Island-Columbia Point.

I also believe I saw a White-winged Scoter at Broughton Beach although it
was too far for good pictures.
And then I wonder if these are White-winged Scoters at Hayden Island
without the white wing patches or Surf Scoters? The head is very wedge
shaped and the facial marks are more oval.

Plus the Franklin's Gull was close to the boat launch at Smith/Bybee and
Andy and I saw a Northern Shrike behind the Bybee blind (but no photo of
that).
