[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe - Jones Beach Coast Guard Station, Nassau County

[Timothy Healy]

While leading a walk for the New York State Young Birders Club at Jones Beach 
West End this morning, I found an Eared Grebe on the bay north of the Coast 
Guard Station boat basin. The bird was gradually drifting west and diving 
actively, last seen several minutes ago headed towards the inlet. 

Cheers,
-Tim H

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe at Jamaica Bay West Pond

[Doug Gochfeld]

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.

Good Birding

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe continues on the East Pond @Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge..

[Andrew Baksh]


An Eared Grebe previously found by members of the Linnaean Society, continues 
this AM on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, Queens Co.

It is quite active and I picked it up while scoping and counting ducks looking 
north from Big John’s Overlook. The only other notable from the East Pond was a 
late Snowy Egret.

Cheers,

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe, Pelham Bay Park, Bronx

[Matthieu]

While kayaking in the Bronx late this afternoon I found an Eared Grebe just 
South-West of the City island bridge along the Pelham Bay shore (i.e. just East 
of Rodman Neck). The current and waves in the channel together with the diving 
activity of the grebe made the documentation challenging by kayak but I got 
several pictures. The bird was observed together with an Horned Grebe which 
enabled nice comparisons. The 2 Grebes seemed to go back and forth between the 
bridge and Rodman neck.

Ebird checklist with pictures of the grebe:

Good birding,

Matthieu

Re:[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe - Shinnecock In, Suffolk Co

[Mike McBrien]

Moments after pressing send, the Grebe took off, heading west close to shore. 
It seemed to touch down somewhere to the west of the Ponqougue beach bathhouse, 
so it is likely still in the area.

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe Oak Beach

[Peter Reisfeld]

Third time was a charm.  This morning around 10 AM the eared grebe finally 
graciously cooperated by appearing relatively close to shore, and then by 
joining with his horned cousin for prolonged looks.  Seen far west of the 
entrance approaching the Sore Thumb peninsula.  Here’s a link to a video. (It 
was windy so you may want to turn down the volume.):

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe--Point Lookout, Nassau County

[Michael Andersen]

NYS Birders,

Tim Lenz and I observed an EARED GREBE today at Point Lookout, Nassau County. 
It was loosely associating with two Horned Grebes, immediately east of the 
easternmost of the three jetties. Two Harlequin Ducks were off the westernmost 
jetty. Many Common Eider and Bonaparte's Gulls were present, but we could not 
pull out more sought-after species. 

A digiscoped iPhone video of the grebe is posted here: 
https://www.flickr.com/photos/mja43/16063914019/

and our eBird list, with an embedded still image, is here:

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe- Jamaica Bay

[JGIUNTA746]

Date; Jan. 10, 2012
 
The Eared Grebe was present in the usual spot. It was best observed by  
sitting on bench #7 and looking at Jamaica Bay. A scope was necessary. In the  
same area were Horned Grebes and Bufflehead. Difficulties were the angle of 
the  sun and some choppy waves.
Birds of note on the West Pond were Pintail, Goldeneye and Black-crowned  
Night Heron.
 
Good Birding,
Joe Giunta

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe still at J. Bay

[Tait Johansson]

A Bedford Audubon Society field trip to Jamaica Bay today (11/15) produced 54 
species, including the continuing Eared Grebe, seen hanging with a small group 
of Horned Grebes and Buffleheads, on the bay just south of Bench 7 by the West 
Pd.

Could not find the previously reported drake Eurasian Wigeon on the East Pd. 
There was one Great Cormorant there, along with many Ruddy Ducks and an array 
of other waterfowl.

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe - Jamaica Bay

[mcb3mb]

After a terrific morning of birding at Wertheim NWR with the Great South Bay 
Audubon Society, I continued to Jamaica Bay where the Eared Grebe continued on 
the bayside of the West Pond around Bench 5.  There were reports in the bird 
log of the grebe around 11:00 am, but then it apparently disappeared with the 
flock of Horned Grebes later.  It was present when we arrived around 1:00. 
Unfortunately, we could not relocate the Eurasian Wigeon on the East Pond.
Good birding,
Michael McBrien

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe in East Hampton - Osprey in Watermill

[Carl Starace]

Hi All,   I gave an Eastern Long Island Audubon Walk from Montauk to
East Hampton today. On our last stop at Main Beach,[south Main St.], East
Hampton we had an Eared Grebe directly out from the parking lot in breakers
some 25 yards from shore. It gave all of us multiple looks. We had just come
from the   Atlantic  Ave. beachfront where an Eared had been spotted last
weekend. At  Montauk we had one female King Eider way to the left of the
patio, a Turkey Vulture that  came around the Point flying well offshore of
the concession and small number of Northern Gannets,[we had the latter at
all ocean stops]. All three Scoters are still well represented and the
smaller Common Eider delegation seemed to be enjoying Montauk's balmy
breezes. Seven Great Cormorants were at rest on the towers at the Lake
Montauk jetties. There were 2 first winter Lesser Black Backed Gulls just
inside the inlet there and Sally Newbert and Tom Moran saw an Iceland Gull
at Gosman's on the beach just to the west. The Canvasbacks continued at the
northwest corner of Fort Pond,but the 4 Redheads,[ found by Joe Lynch],this
morning were  with a flock of Ring necked Duck at the southernmost end of
the pond by Montauk Highway .While Lazy Point was a bust, even for
shorebirds, Hook Pond still had 8 Common Mergansers. Driving home as we past
the Mill Pond in Watermill we spotted a FOS Osprey.  Good March Birding,
Carl Starace

Re: [nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe at Amagansett (Suffolk Co.)

[Hugh McGuinness]

Dear NY Birders,

With regards to the EARED GREBES recently found on Eastern Long Island, I
have little doubt that there are actually two different individuals: the one
at Ditch Plains, Montauk and the other at Amagansett. The location where
Carl Starace found the Amagansett bird was the same place I found an
apparent Eared Grebe on the waterfowl count in January. This bird dived
within about 3 seconds of me finding it and I was unable to locate it again,
but at the time I felt certain it was an Eared Grebe. (I did not put it on
my waterfowl count list, however, b/c of the quick view.) Further, this
location is only a few miles from where my party found an Eared Grebe on the
CBC in December, so I suspect that there has been a single wandering
individual that has wintered off East Hampton and Amagansett. I wonder if
someone got a photo of the Montauk bird that could be compared by those of
us who have seen the Amagansett bird so that we may evaluate the two-bird
hypothesis.

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe at Amagansett (Suffolk Co.)

[ken feustel]

An Eared Grebe was observed Thursday afternoon with three Horned Grebes from 
the end of Indian Wells Plain Highway in Amagansett. This individual is perhaps 
the same bird seen by birders further east off Atlantic Avenue the day before. 
This particular bird is not a well-marked individual, lacking dark auriculars 
and a prominent bump over the forehead (perhaps a function of posture). 
However, the bird was clearly smaller in direct comparison to Horned Grebes, 
with a thinner neck and bill. We reviewed a series of photos of Eared Grebe 
from Cornell University and noted photos of a number of individuals with 
similar features to the bird observed yesterday afternoon.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe, 3 Trumpeter Swans-Dunkirk Harbor, Chautauqua Co.

[Jim Pawlicki]

Photos of the Dunkirk Little Gull and Trumpeter Swans can be found here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/jmpawli10/

The Little Gull spent a fair amount of time foraging point blank off of the
main pier on both the east and west sides amongst small numbers of
Bonaparte's, while the Trumpeter Swans were initially along the outer side
of the east inner breakwall, but later re-located to the outer breakwall.
The Eared Grebe put in a brief appearance just west of the west inner
breakwall before disappearing amongst the old wooden docks. Also present in
the harbor was the previously reported juv. (and extremely tame)
Red-throated Loon that was in very close to the main pier on the east side.

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe-Dunkirk 3/4/10

[Jerry Lazarczyk]

Art Buddington and I saw the Eared Grebe (originally seen by David Neuve of 
Silver Creek in February) closeby off the east side of the Central Avenue dock 
near the Main Street breakwall. It rested amongst the Coots most of the time. 
It is the first time that I can remember a Grebe resting with its head turned 
back which it did for only a few moments. 

The ice was separating  from the shore ice well past Serval St. to the east and 
the harbor seems to have many fewer waterfowl than I can ever remember. 

Many Pied-billed Grebes and Cormorants were on the south side of the West Inner 
breakwall.

The Greater Black-backed Gull continues as the apparent most numerous gull 
species in the harbor.

We saw an adult and two subadult eagles on the ice outside the outer breakwall 
from a viewpoint near the DEC offices at Point Gratiot (former fish hatchery).

A surprising amount of open water existed in the vicinity of the Buffalo 
Harbor. The rest of the lake appeared frozen from what we could see.

[nysbirds-l] Eared Grebe, Glaucous Gull, Killdeer - Chautauqua Co.

[Jmpawli88]

The EARED GREBE and the "Blonde Gull" (1st-cycle GLAUCOUS GULL) originally  
found mid-week by Dave Neveu were both present today at Dunkirk Harbor in  
Chautauqua Co. with the Grebe frequenting the area in close just off the  
Main Pier between the docked Margaret Ann (boat) and the east inner  
breakwall.  The Glaucous was making its rounds through the docks on both  sides 
of 
the pier as well as the inner breakwalls, mostly mooching fish scraps  from 
the Great Black-backed Gulls, but also readily took some bread which I  threw 
out I threw out in hopes of drawing it in for photos (the local RB Gulls  
appreciated this too).  A Horned Grebe was also present, along with a Ruddy  
Duck (seen by Bill Watson), and at least 9 BALD EAGLES that were sitting 
either  out on the ice edge or in the tall oaks at the point just south of the  
harbor.  At one point it was interesting to watch as two  immature Eagles 
tirelessly pursued and  then eventually captured a Ring-billed Gull out over 
the ice.   Bill Watson and I then continued south into the towns of Clymer 
and French Creek  in the very SW part of the state and near the French Creek 
preserve on  Route 4 had a nice sooty black adult m. ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK and at 
 Clymer Pond in the hamlet of Clymer, a pair of KILLDEER that were  working 
the limited patches of grass and shoreline along the pond, and most  
probably were recent arrivals on last night's clear skies and SW  winds.
