Yes, I saw them yesterday as they passed about 10 feet from me, when I was
standing on the ramp leading into the water. I didn't think to take their
picture, but when I entered the observation in eBird, it indicated that
seeing four at once is unusual and that I should add additional information
about the sighting. This led me to a question I frequently wonder about: I
know that there are accepted "field marks" for each species, but I'm not
sure how to find out what they are. Is there a resource somewhere (ideally,
an app) that specifically lists the primary field marks per species?
