   Details

   Rare!! Complete surprise! Flew in from Governor’s Island area maybe? An expletive was yelled out, before Mike Y said “A flock of Harlequin Ducks!!” Very pretty dark ducks, mix of adult males and female/young types - males with harlequin patterning and white crescent on face, females/young birds with white ear patches.
