Tufted Duck 1992 Oct-Dec Crawford An imm. was found at Linesville Spillway 9/19 by Tony Marich. It was also seen in Oct by EK,J&JS,RFL et al). The bird was rather tame and ate bread thrown to the Mallards and carp at the spillway. I got as close as 4'. It was not banded, however its boldness toward people lends me to believe it may be an escape from a private collection or zoo. If wild, a 1st Co. record. Ronald Leberman
