After almost an hour at Lake Breckenridge in Cumberland County without seeing 
the Long-tailed Duck, we were getting ready to drive off when I stopped the car 
to scan once more. I then spotted it out by itself directly west of the end of 
Cherry St where we were viewing. I'm not sure if it was there the whole time or 
not--it was diving for long periods of time.

2/24, 12:30 - 1:30pm:

Long-tailed Duck - 1 fem
Redhead - ~120
Ring-necked Duck - ~40
Scaup species - ~8 (not sure Greater or Lesser--seemed very white-sided on 
males and slightly bigger than Ring-necked)
Bufflehead - 1 fem
Ruddy Duck - 1 winter m
Pie-billed Grebe - 1

Red-shouldered Hawk - 2
