Observation details
Three COLOs present for the entire observation period on the widest portion of the lake near the dam, usually close together and frequently diving. Solar heating of the near slope made for somewhat distorted photography, but my most useful photos are below. Left photo shows all three birds: an adult in breeding plumage on the right, with the other two birds in basic/immature plumage. The photo on the right provides a closer look at the adult, which may be a continuing bird from my last visit on May 6.
