Female Bullock's: Check.

I agree with the person who said that the duck looks like a juvenile Common Merganser. The bill and head shape are the best indicators. The tail may be stiff, but nothing else is remotely Ruddy Duck-like. I say COMO. btw, you have some very nice photos in that collection.

Once again I am asking you good people to help me learn.
Around Issaquah creek this morning I saw what I believe to be a female Bullock's Oriole and another juvenile duck where the shape of the head feathers and tail don't help me.
They are the first two pics in the recent sightings album on www.west_woods.typepad.com

As always , thank you for my continuing education !
