Your experience locating/relocating the Barrow's sounds similar to my recent experience in finding a single Long-tailed Duck amongst a bunch of Common Goldeneyes. I'm jealous you got to see the Long-taileds in such great numbers, and I would love to see a Barrow's and White-winged Scoter some day.

That Scoter really seemed to laugh.

Open water on the Great Lakes is going to continue shrinking for a few more weeks and small lakes aren't going to open up very quickly around here. That means you could still get more of these birds arriving down your way.
