Observation details
Great find by Philip Georgakakos yesterday. Just about the same spot Philip had her (37.7670676, -122.2993856). You can get her in a scope from the end of the sidewalk on the jetty but I scrambled a bit further down the rocks to get a terrible photo. She wasn’t with the big scoter rafts but loosely associated with a single bufflehead female and lone male surf scoter. Complete white cheek strap, smaller bill with a steep forehead and angle at bill. Would definitely recommend kayak for best and safest viewing.
