Last night I watched this tiny female Lesser Scaup bravely navigate her way around much larger Mallards and Canada Geese. The little one held her ground, even if she looked a bit intimidated.

A male and female #LesserScaup from my friendly neighborhood pond. They continued in the area for about a week, which surprised me given I can't imagine this pond has that much food in it!

Lifers! These #LesserScaup were chilling in a pond for a couple days before continuing their migration. Frustratingly, Greater Scaup look identical, but the coloration, head shape, and likelihood of encountering indicated LESC.

Female Lesser Scaup.
Do me a favour and spend more time appreciating the female side of bird kind, especially when the males are more flashy.
Female birds are understudied, from vocalizations of songbirds to hybridization of waterfowl.

Okay, the announcement about sunsetting the regulations in the migratory bird act and the bald eagle protections is really upsetting me. Seriously. Fuck this administration.

Whilst all scopes and binoculars were trained on a #lesserscaup yesterday, surrounded by lazy snoozing #pochard, this trio of #mallardmusketeers came to see what all the fuss was about!

A lone lesser scaup has showed up in Jamaica Pond to join what might as well be called Ducktown, the scarce bit of open water on the pond. It was hard to get a photo of her because she kept diving over and over. #lesserscaup

Is this a #GreaterScaup or #LesserScaup? Am I missing the obvious characteristics? Taken on the north shore of Long Island, NY in July. #birdID #birding #birdsky
