Back to Barnegat Light yesterday in hopes, amongst others, of finding reported Common Redpolls. We did see our winter friends, the Harlequin Ducks, also a loan Greater Scaup. As we navigated over the jetty rocks a number of Harlequins gave us a display diving next to the Mussel encrusted rocks.. Harlequin Ducks are carnivores eating mollusks, crustaceans, and insects. Still amazing to me are the colors and designs of these beauties. C&C welcome
