Thanks to all those who wrote me back yesterday. Your advice really paid off. I spotted the bird in the West Pond at roughly 6:40 and watched it until it flew off to the West at 6:49 with several females which I believe were Commons. The rest of the Common Goldeneye stuck around until a few minutes after 7:00. I witnessed several males in what appeared to be display behavior. Other notables were Snow Goose, Lesser Scaup and Green-wing Teal.
