226 Days until the US Open at Chambers Bay

I have been walking Chambers Creek Properties for years. I have been carrying a camera since 2009. With the US Open coming to the Chambers Bay Golf Course, which is part of the property, I have decided to share a picture each day for the 365 days leading up to the tournament. The US Open is scheduled to begin on June 18, 2015. As of today, we are 226 days away.

Today's Picture:
Long-tailed Duck
Taken on November 4, 2011

A few years ago, we had a Long-tailed Duck (Clangula hyemalis) hanging out with our Red-breasted Mergansers. While I had several sightings of this specific bird, it is the only one I have ever seen out here. I don't think they are considered rare for us, so there's a good chance that we can attract another someday.
