Saw the female Redhead this afternoon by the nature center at Lake
Merritt, apparently hanging with a Canvasback drake - though that could
have been coincidence of interests. The Ring-necked Duck was in the area
too.
While unsuccessfully searching the brush beside the second island for
the hybrid hoodie-goldeneye - the last of the regulars to arrive,
assuming he's coming this year - I saw what looked a lot like a female
Hooded Merganser. The light was bad and my binocs weren't quite up to
the job, but the silhouette looked promising.
