With a quick stop in downtown Waukesha just above the Fox River Dam, from a 
distnace while driving, I noticed a bird that clearly was not the usual 
Mallard or gull.  I was pleasantly surprised to spot a Common Loon.  Further 
up river, there was at least one more.

Common Loon:

And, while Mallards are about as common as they come, here are a few photos 
of the Mallard mutations that call Waukesha home:
