- Haines/Lesser Scaup: (edit)
- Juneau/Lesser Scaup: (edit)
- Ketchikan/Lesser Scaup: (edit)
- Sitka/Lesser Scaup: Probably Uncommon in migration and through winter. May be under reported due to difficulty distinguishing from the more common Greater Scaup. Relative to Greater Scaup, Lesser Scaup seems to prefer freshwater, especially later in spring. Best observed on Swan Lake from fall through spring when there is open water. (edit)
