Hi Everyone,

Clopper Lake in Seneca Creek State Park has been getting some =
interesting birds lately. Last week, someone reported a Surf Scoter, =
which still remains. On Sunday, I led a trip to Seneca Creek State Park =
for the MOS conference. When the Surf Scoter appeared, it was in the =
company of a Redhead. There was also a loon on the lake. The other =
highlight of the trip was a Olive-sided Flycatcher at the Visitors =
Center. Great trip, with good company, we tallied 75 species.

I checked the lake this morning, besides the scoter and Redhead, there =
were two Common Loons and a Red-necked Grebe. I went back this =
afternoon, and a scaup had joined the others. I had great looks and =
believe it to be a Greater Scaup. I welcome others to look for it and =
post their thoughts whether it is a Greater or Lesser Scaup. In the =
afternoon, four female Red-breasted Mergansers also appeared.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring.

Regards,

Dave Powell
