I realized on December 30th that 2023 would be the first year since I started birding in which I saw ZERO lifers.
Remedied that by driving to New Jersey on December 31st to see the long-staying Red-flanked Bluetail.
The little sweetums (trust me)
Then I thought, fuck it, I'm already in New Jersey, might as well hit Barnegat Light
If you've never been, it offers SPECTACULAR looks at winter waterfowl like Harlequin Duck, Long-tailed Duck, all three scoter species, occasional eiders, Red-throated Loon, Red-breasted Merganser, etc. All incredibly close to the jetty you walk out on. Purple Sandpiper and Ruddy Turnstone are practically underfoot.

Semifinals match B
The King Eider, like other eider species, is a northern sea duck that is primarily found along the coast of the Arctic Ocean, as well as the cold northern waters of the Pacific and the Atlantic. The male is patterned in black, white, blue, green, and orange, while the female is mottled brown with subtle chevron patterns along the sides.
The Harlequin Duck is found along rocky coasts in Canada, the northern United States, and Greenland. On top of the male's distinctive patterning, both sexes can be identified by the white spots present on both sides of the head, towards the back. The male makes a high-pitched squeaking call, and is therefore sometimes referred to as a "sea mouse".
