Thank-you to *everybody* for your patience, persistence, & communication regarding finding, refinding, and documenting this super-rare European bird, the Tundra Bean-Goose. As I said before, this is only the second NYS record, while the first record was only last March, and probably the same bird, also on northbound migration in the eastern part of the state. There are a lot of birders with cameras, but photography has been very challenging, and few reports even include unique photos, let alone detailed, focused, or complete views of the bird. I think Sandy Podulka has finally submitted some photos to eBird which give us all - and history - a satisfying view. If anyone else has photos or video which even document some single field mark or behavior well for this bird, please do not hesitate to add them to your eBird reports.
