Observation details
We had long and excellent scope views of this female RBME. It was basically a slim, brownish-gray duck with a cinnamon-colored head and neck and a dingy gray chest. The bird had a diffuse border between its cinnamon-colored neck and dingy-gray chest; a long, thin, red bill that appeared to be slightly up-curved; and two spiky, thin head crests. We made sure that the bird lacked the white chin patch that is diagnostic for a female Common Merganser. Two long-distance photos.
