Surf Scoter on Fläcksjön

19:th of May 2010
A fine day with gardening to the sound of Common Rosefinch, Wryneck and Pied Flycatchers. When I go down to the lake Fläcksjön to count the Black Terns in the evening I find a flock of ducks resting on the water. 4 Common Scoters, 2 Velvet Scoters and a stunning male Surf Scoter! A lifer for me and a first for the county (Västmanland). No pictures due to little too long range. Well twitched by some 50 people. Gone this morning of course. Some pics on Markus Rehnbergs blogg!
