Ducks Back on Black Lake

 Ring-necked Ducks

 Mixed flock, mostly Canvasbacks.
Can you find the Bald Eagle?

 Canvasbacks

 Lesser Scaup

American Wigeon

I spent a little time at Black Lake yesterday, and the ducks are back on the lake. I went in the afternoon so I birded from the west side of the lake.  A spotting scope is recommended because the ducks like to stay in the middle of the lake.  I had help with a Bald Eagle keeping the ducks stirred up.
