As many as three Long-tailed Ducks were seen at Cowan Lake today, but the birds may be elusive. I saw the male, another birder saw the male and two females, and a third missed them altogether. All sightings were from the Southshore Marina. A total of 16 species were seen; 733 individuals, over half of them Lesser Scaup.
