Finally got the scope out at work during lunch. East of the Lagoon, between Rendall Park and the Marinas many ducks gathering. Spotted the Female Long-tailed reported by Jason swimming with 3 C. Goldeneyes, also my buddy the Am. Dipper made another appearance after almost a months absence.
Quick Count:
Lesser Scaup - 142, Buffleheads - 109, Can. Geese - 40, Am. Coot - 38, Greater Scaup - 11, Surf Scoter - 4, Common Goldeneye - 3, Mallard - 3, Glacous-winged Gull - 3, Cackling Geese - 2 (don't often see the little guys on the Lake!), C. Raven - 2, C. Loon - 1, Long-tailed Duck - 1, Am. Dipper - 1
Only got a quick look at all the Gulls on Mountain View Rd. (First day mostly G.W.s in the morning and I think Mews in the afternoon). After Jason's report, checked for the Franklin's Gull the next morning, but they had all moved on...
