Based on the nearly totally black appearance of these guys, and what appears to be the classic yellow knob on the bill, I am voting Black Scoters for these guys.

Ty, very nice--you have come far, fast, in astro-imaging. What camera did you get?

Crows Nest

Ahh, very cool. Crows are very secretive about their nests; it sounds like you have a great opportunity to observe them. I look forward to more shots.

Just his eye at 100% resolution, cropped. Lots of detail with this camera and lens.

This guy landed on a branch about 20 feet away. The lighting was horrible, but I still liked his look and the detail.

I liked his pose...these guys were all over the cliffs at La Jolla.

I always wondered where the name "Double-crested" came from...this is the first time in nearly 20 years of birding that I have seen one in breeding plumage.
