Harlequin Ducks on the CBBT











Howdy all,

Here are a few "not all that hot" pictures of two male Harlequin Ducks that were on island 1 of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel (CBBT) Sunday 9 Dec. An annual bird here on the CBBT but they are usually found on one of the other three islands (which have limited birding access). So it is always nice to see them on island 1. Along with these fellas were 6 Purple Snadpipers, 200+ Bonaparte's Gulls, 75+ Forester's Terns, 6 Long-tailed Ducks and Northern Gannets. Surprisingly, NO Scoters of any kind.
Cheers,
Jethro

Beautiful birds! Your "not so hot" pictures are far better than the ones I took of the ones we saw there when we were birding in the rain with you several years ago...Thanks for sharing them.
