Observation details
Not ducks, geese, loons, coots, or grebes. Actual count. Surprised to look out at lake and see a flock (1 would have been unusual but not unprecedented at this time of year) drifting down river. A few birds occasionally dove apparently feeding but believe count is accurate. By the time I could grab a camera all but one bird, which had climbed out to perch on a log, had drifted down river. I was able to get several "doc shots" as this one preened for a couple minutes before it too slipped into the water and swam after the others.
