[EBB Sightings] First Goldeneyes at Lake Merritt!

Barrow's Goldeneyes, yet - a lone male near the islands, and a pair out 
in the closed end of the lake, between the islands and the scaup raft.

Lots of scaup, both species.

Substantial numbers of Canvasbacks and Bufflehead.

And a Tufted Duck - presumably the same one we saw a couple of weeks ago 
on the GGAS 4th-Wednesday walk. I couldn't find the Ring-necked Duck we 
saw at the same time, or the with-luck-new-resident Green Heron, but the 
rest of the usual suspects were out in force.
