Subject: [va-bird] Scaup (Greater?) at Kingstowne
I've posted three shots of a female Scaup that I shot about 3:40pm this
afternoon at the lake next to Kingstowne Shopping Center (off South Van
Dorn Street).
http://www.pbase.com/bb_etc/kingstowne ;(the first three)
Dare I hope that this is a Greater Scaup? After consulting Sibley,
Kauffman, Audubon's, Thayer, I still am not certain.
Note: there were hundreds of birds on the lake this afternoon. Many, many
Canadas, Ring-bills and friendly Sparrows (on which I am still working),
plus I'd estimate at least 50 Ring-necked Ducks.
