Apologies the image is not the clearest here. Does anyone know who the bird is inside the blue circle? Black head, grey back, white-ish chest and creamy spot around tail, located around Everett, WA. Bonus points if you can also ID the shorebirds here- I am thinking Western sandpiper.
Great picture that captures a lot of bird life! I believe your bird is either a northern pintail (most likely) or a green winged teal. Note the lighter front and white patch on the back side.
