Saw a Juvenile Black Scoter at Black’s Creek Reservoir south of Boise this
morning. It was hanging on the far side opposite the main parking lot and
not diving much.

Good birding!

I still have a few fall stragglers coming through: Yellow-rumped Warblers, Red-breasted Nuthatch & Swainson’s Thrush. White-crowned Sparrows still here & Dark-eyed Juncos are now common. The first winter resident Townsend’s Solitaire has arrived & best bird of the day was a fly-over by a flock of 10+ American Pipits.
