As an update to this observation, the pictures were looked at by multiple
eBird reviewers and they weren't able to come to a consensus about whether
this was a Greater Scaup or a Lesser Scaup and so the observation was
updated to Greater/Lesser Scaup. It was an interesting bird.

Subject: Possible Greater Scaup
After looking closer at my pictures from this morning one of the Scaups
seems to have a larger bill than the others, the nail seemed wider, the head
was broader and the forehead seemed to bulge forward. Please let me know
what you think.
