Hi I am in town chasing the vagrants at Bill Baggs State Park and was looking for some other birds that would be lifers during my visit. I noticed there is a black scoter being seen at the Homestead Air Reserve Base. I’ve never heard of an inland scoter before. Is this a common sighting in the area? Is this air base open to the public or do other area lakes get scoters too? I know they prefer the coast, but if I could see one inland that would save a lot of time. thanks you for all the help.
