« on: December 02, 2016, 12:04:46 AM »
I don't know what the 1st one is,it actually flew into the side of my wheelhouse,I brought it inside and it seemed to recover so I put him over board.ill try to post both pictures,if it doesn't work I'll post the2nd bird in another post. The second bird,I know what it is,I'll let you guys guess what it is.it landed on my deck about 10 minutes after the 1st crashed into the side.

Forgot to say I'm out fishing off the Aleutian Islands,about 12 miles offshore. Here's a better pic of the bird I don't know.

Greater Scaup, I think. Beautiful Emperor, I've never seen one.
