Thanks to Bryan Prather for this amazing find! (And Diane Bricmont for the phone call.) This Surf Scoter was a first winter male in transition. He looked a bit like a pimply teenager. TOO WONDERFUL. We thought this bird would have been reported by others who were contacted, or we would have reported about this cool guy sooner.
