Yesterday we stopped at Thomas Reservoir in Erie on our way back from Denver. A juvenile White-winged Scoter had been reported there a couple days ago. There was a corner of the lake that wasn't frozen over, which harbored some waterfowl and gulls. There were Canada Geese, a female Common Goldeneye, a pair of Mallards, lots of Ring-billed Gulls, and the White-winged Scoter! The only White-winged Scoter we’d seen previously was on the Upper Texas Coast last spring and it was a very distant view.
