Observation details
*Getting pretty late. Female seen swimming alone on Big Fish Creek near the outlet for the pond. First suspected LESC based on minimal white at base of bill and seemingly small nail on bill as seen from a distance. Further study caused me to lean more towards GRSC based on head and neck shape/size, as well as bill width. Birds of the World account notes that female GRSC should show a pale auricular patch at this time of year, which I did not note in the field and my poor digibin photos do not show. Attaching these photos in the hope that someone will chime in one way or the other.
