Harlequin Duck in the Oahe Dam Tailwaters
January 1, 2010
Ricky Olson and Kenny Miller found this Harlequin Duck in the fog on New Years Day, it was
very difficult to locate and photograph due to fog and extreme cold. 
I finally got lucky and found it close to shore in a few breaks in the fog.

Ice Goose.  I'd be headed south if I was a goose.

January 2
Harlequin Duck was still in the tailrace, this morning the fog
wasn't as bad, but the light was still terrible. Temp was around -10F and wind was SE at 15-20.
