I stopped by Fish Lake in western Linn County while enroute to Malheur. The Surf Scoter I reported there on the 12th is still there and still in the company of a female Barrow's Goldeneye. The numbers of Goldeneye have exploded after I commented how few were there last visit. Today I counted 57 and there were likely others hidden. The scoter was on the NE part of the lake off shore from the old guard station cabin. A Townsends Solitaire was perching on the rails of the old guard station compound. Mark Nikas
