Greater Scaup and Clark's Grebe

Greater Scaup and Clark's Grebe (Aythya marila, Aechmophorus clarkii)

Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 60m.

Greater Scaup (left, flapping) and Clark's Grebe (right). Scaups are plentiful here, but first time I've seen one: a) on land, and b) doing anything but swimming. The Clark's Grebe is also new to me, and I've never seen the scaups hang-out with grebes before either.
