Thanks to Richard for getting the word out about the Scoters and Mergansers.
Both sets of birds were still present today at the same locations as originally
described. The probable Western Grebe was not relocated, but instead there
were two Red-throated Loons at Seven Points - one was still in winter plumage,
and the other bird was molting into breeding plumage - they were seen straight
out from the boat ramp among several Common Loons. Other notable birds at
Seven Points included at least 12 Common Goldeneye, several Herring Gulls, two
Bald Eagles and a Merlin.

Other
birds of note from today at Priest Lake:
Elm Hill
MarinaWHITE-WINGED SCOTERS - 10, a few adult
males plus females and sub adults, in with a mixed group of
ducks including Can's & Redheads.This is
in a side slough accessed from Elm Hill Rec Area, this area
not usually open in the winter but open because of some
on-going construction.
Hamilton Creek marina
The
large mixed group of ducks, reported from last Sunday by
Mike Smith, is still there - Canvasbacks, Readheads,
Ring-necked Ducks, and scaup etc. Probably some Greater
Scaup in this mix, but I did not make the effort to tease
any out.
