Wondering if the drake White-winged Scoter on Shetland may be a second-winter male, rather than an adult? Some observations and thoughts from today:

A stately procession of eleven Surf Scoters, with a White-winged Scoter acting the joker by going the other way.

At Spanish Banks Beach, Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Photo: Nine Surf Scoters (six males and three females) in a line (with six paired up) from one side of the picture to the other facing right, with two of them only having their heads visible as they enter from the left. A tenth scoter is half in and half out of the picture on the right side with only his back visible. An eleventh scoter is swimming towards the line and away from the camera view . There is one duck swimming the other way, this is an adult male White-winged Scoter - they are all black and have a white swoop mark under their eyes and the tip of their beaks is orange. Male Surf Scoters have black feathers all over and have a white patch on the top of their heads and an extended white triangular patch on the back of their heads and necks. Their beaks are orange and white. The females are mostly black, including their beaks, but have a grey patch on their cheeks.

Surf Scoters and White-winged Scoters flying low over the water of Burrard inlet with the Point Atkinson Lighthouse in the background.

At Vancouver, BC, Canada

#Birds #ducks #SurfScoter #WhiteWingedScoter #NaturePhotography
Photo: Thirty ducks, White-winged Scoters and Surf Scoters, are flying away from the camera. They are flying low over ruff, whitecapped water. In the background to the right side of the picture a lighthouse tower and a small building with a sloped roof are standing on rocks rising from the water. Behind the lighthouse is a forest in shadow on a hill that angles down across the picture from top right to bottom left. Behind that hill is a sunlit mountain covered in trees that go from waterline to the top of the picture that makes it look like a wall of trees.

Counted quite a few of these White-winged Scoters, most of which were at Burlington Canal. This drake was at Spencer Smith Park.
