    The male COMMON MERGANSER that I posted a photo of on
    11/16 continues on Alameda Creek at the Niles staging
    area.  Around 3 this afternoon, the bird was standing
    on one leg on a rock in the middle of the creek,
    dozing with its head under its wing. When I returned
    fifteen minutes later, it was gone, and I did not find
    it farther downstream, nor did I find its three lady
    friends.
    
    A male COMMON MERGANSER was on Shinn Pond, and three
    BLACK-CROWNED NIGHT HERONS were along the pond's shore.
