Bucephala islandica
"The Barrow’s Goldeneye prefers small, clear lakes and ponds that are not crowded with submergent and emergent vegetation and that do not support
populations of fish. Goldeneyes are cavity-nesting ducks and typically use forested habitat with mature trees (deciduous or coniferous) that offer
suitable nesting cavities." (Seattle Audubon Society) These were found swimming
in a calm river in the Skagit River Valley.
