Dan P Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Taken on 11-15-2021 on the Los Angeles River at Glendale Narrows Riverwalk in Glendale, CA. This single scaup was hanging out with a group of 6 mallards. No other scaups seen on a 1-mile stretch of river. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen a scaup on the Los Angeles River before. Can this one be identified? I don't have the expertise. It bothers me that it's eye does not appear to be yellow, but it is on the shaded side.
