On my morning walk at Centennial Lake, along with all the usual waterfowl , Mallards, Canada Goose, Hooded mergansers, Buffleheads, and 3 Horned Grebes (61) was also a LESSER SCAUP (62), only two scaup species indigenous to North America, the Greater and Lesser. The Greater prefers saltwater and the Lesser is a freshwater bird, and number 62 on my list. This is also a life list bird for me.
In addition to the Lesser and the Horned Grebes there were, Northern Mockingbirds, Northern cardenals, Red-winged Blackbirdds, Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, AMerican Crows, Fish Crows, Common Grackles, Starlings, House finches, American Goldfinches, Carolina Wrens, Hooden Mergansers, Mallards, Canada Geese, Buffleheads.
61 - Horned Grebe - CL Mar-29
62 - Lesser Scaup - CL - Mar-29
That is all for now, and it is still morning
