Re: [SBB] Female common merganser in San Tomas Aquino Creek



Last year I saw Common Mergansers on this stretch of the creek regularly, particularly between 101 and Tasman. Both Male and Female.

I saw a female common merganser hanging out with a group of mallards in
San Tomas Aquino Creek at 7:30AM this morning.  I haven't seen
mergansers here before.  The location was behind Great America, between
Mission College and Tasman.

Otherwise the birds were all among the usual suspects this morning.  I
did not see the kingfisher that I was seeing there a couple months ago.
