Judging by the shape of the feathering going out along the base of the bill, looks like a young male White-winged to me with that little bit of color starting to develop on the bill. Ya'll are killing me with all of these Scoters! :") Good Birding!!

When I looked at these I just assumed they were all White-winged. Now looking at the picture I’m wondering if it might be a Surf? This was taken at the Chickamauga Dam on 1/11.
