Surf Scoters - the brightest things I saw on this otherwise dreary day in the drizzle.

The Surf Scoters were rambunctious today. I haven't seen them since the photos above (four weeks ago). It was nice to see them again.

Surf Scoter - they seem to like the miserable days.

Nice shots. Lovely birds. Scoters are unusually shaped birds.
 
Well, we're in the middle of another long rainy spell. I hope it's the middle because that suggests there'll be an end. The Surf Scoters seem to love this bleary, dreary weather.
