Hi Folks, 

Thanks to Bill Holt and Marty Paige's instructions, I saw a boatload of 
White-winged Scoters at the Vincent Road boat ramp, off Highway 58, in 
Chattanooga, today.  This was the only spot where I looked for ducks. In Los 
Angeles we get one or two White-winged Scoters each winter, but I have never 
seen a whole flock of them. Wow.

Two Bald Eagles soared overhead, while a Long-tailed Duck followed the scoter 
flock.  There were also Common Goldeneyes. I did not see any Black Scoters or 
Surf Scoters, and would still like to see a Black Scoter, anywhere. Fish Crows 
called while flying overhead, while a Carolina Wren played hide & seek.
