Observation details

First spotted by Andy Jones. Jones was standing up to leave the McDonald's picnic tables where our group was eating, and took one final scan of the estuary before moving the group on to our next stop. Spotted a group of distant ducks on a lawn, with black bellies, and took off to our van to retrieve the scope. From there, was able to take these mediocre photos with my iPhone through my spotting scope at 60X magnification.
