These are two lousy shots (for I.D. purposes) of the Canvasback this morning.
It landed again out by a flock of Canada Geese. It was still there as of 7:50 a.m. Found yesterday afternoon by Michael Tat.
The only other eBird sighting was by Rob Fanning on Feb. 26, 1999 — technically, a century ago, sort of.
Newer, better photos are here.
