Saw two scaup at the pond on the Pellissippi State Campus in West Knox 
County, Tenn. Friday afternoon (around 2:30). Also about 100 Canada geese 
and some really adorable young muscovies (11 of them) that keep approaching 
me (made me wish I had some bird seed in my pocket).

Went back this morning around 9:45 and one of the scaup was still there.  I 
think it's a greater based mostly on view of it resting.  Its head had only 
a slight bump (crown?) on the side.  Only 24 Canada geese; the muscovies 
were asleep on the far bank.
