Eared Grebe currently on Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge’s West Pond, all the way to the east with swans. Diving frequently and barely staying above water. Also a Hudsonian Godwit briefly put down on the spit at the SE corner of the West Pond and then flew out into Jamaica Bay and into the marsh at Yellow Bar Hassock. Definitely some shorebird movement happening around the bay right now with the falling tide and rain.
