At 5:30 pm on Sun, May 6, Scott Meyer and I found this female Long-tailed Duck. Seen with Lesser Scaup on medium-sized sewage lagoon. Have 1 lousy digiscope. Female transitioniing into breeding plumage with white around eye and cheek on dark brown head continuing to back. Sides were whitish but hard to see sometimes since it had low profile in water--this low profile very apparent compared to Lesser Scaup. 

Looking up,
