Wednesday, 1st of February, 2017 Central Park, Manhattan, N.Y. City A Red-necked Grebe was found on the Central Park reservoir today by Patrick Clair - near the end of the day, on the western part of the reservoir. The bird was photographed and it is in his report to eBird for this day - this is not a 1st record for the park, but is unexpected and is as far as I know, the first of this species there for this year - at least 2 Pied-billed Grebes are continuing at the reservoir, as they have for months. I suspect the Red-necked is a new arrival.
good birding, and thanks to the sharp-eyed Manhattan birder who noted this report as well as Mr. Clair for the find & report!
