White-Winged Scoters At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.

We could see a lot of birds out in the water at Coast Guard Beach, but it wasn’t until we got home and saw them on the computer that we realized they were White-winged Scoters. What a treat!

White-winged Scoters have a black body with a white eye patch and a white patch on the underside of its wings that you can see better when it flies. They can be seen on Cape Cod  and along the eastern coast during the winter. This is the first “winter” seabird that we’ve seen this season.

Have you ever seen a White-winged Scoter?

  1. It’s good to see that some birds still follow the seasons.
    I just looked out my door and saw two robins. I hope they know how to adapt to Connecticut fall and winter!
