Surf Scoter

TVA Lake; Memphis

The same bird from a different profile. Note now that the Scoter looks almost black, darker than the female Scaup, and still shows the obvious difference in head profile while sleeping. It's also somewhat subtle, but Scoters have a longer tail, which is often kicked up like a stiff-tail.
