[Tweeters] Goldeneye and Harlequin at Seahurst Park

[Rex Takasugi]

Joyce and I went to Saltwater State Park today (mid-day Saturday, near Des Moines) and saw 6 Harlequin Ducks (3 males and 3 females) up close next to shore.  They later perched up on a floating log for good views.  Don't know if they were the same ones Tom saw at Seahurst Park or not.

Good birding!

A small flock of 25 or so Common Goldeneyes (+ a single pair of Barrow's) can be found at the north end of Seahurst Park in Burien. Loosely associated with them are about 10 Harlequin Ducks, 3 male and 7 female. These are regulars in this location and can be seen here throughout the winter.
