Observation details
Both Scoters were travelling and diving with the large flock of Ruddy Ducks on the Hudson River. The two Scoters always stayed very close together. With a spotting scope, white was seen on neck of the Black Scoter, and white was seen at the base of the bill of the Surf Scoter. Photos attached.
