The bufflehead is under represented here so I post this pic. These guys are very dificult to shoot, they are small to begin with, tend to stay away from shore, and are constantly diving.

Nikon D70 and 1000mm f/10 mirror lens

Nice shot! You handled the whites well. They do not look blown out which makes a much better shot.
