Someone in the Western Washington Birders facebook group posted a photo this evening that was taken at Lake Sammamish State Park on Sunday.  The photo shows a flock of greater scaups flying and there is a long-tailed duck in the flock.  Could be the same bird?

Long-tails regularly winter on the Great Lakes and find plenty to eat in freshwater. I would suspect that bugs and snails would fill the bill.

I just visited Phantom L. to look for the LT Duck, but was unable to find it. So it has apparently realized that it was in the wrong place and left the area.
