gpoole Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Thanks to all. This group is the best. The more I learn about birding, the more I realize, I've only just stuck my toe in the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinmt Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I was keyed in on the white-bordered speculum on the eider, which I thought would be Stellers. This occurs on Common also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
