We walked around the park at Dumas Bay Center/Knutzen Theater here in
Federal Way this morning at high tide..You have a good view looking down on
Dumas Bay from there. A group of six Horned Grebes in Winter plumage was
first-of-the-season for me. We also had nice looks at 15 to 20 male Surf
Scoters, one male White-winged Scoter and one juvenile male Greater Scaup.
It is a bit of a challenge to count the scoters while they are constantly
diving or as Ruth Sullivan would have said: "they just went -unter-" !
American Wigeons are starting to build up with eight seen and finally a
female redhead Common Merganser put in appearance.
