For anyone looking to twitch. The Gulls all just lifted off. Likely spooked by an off leashed dog or the chap with his scooter. Many flew out. I’ll do the loop and keep checking to see if it returns. "I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others

The bird hasn't been seen for about an hour. I did re-locate it further down the beach but it was flushed by one of the many dog walkers near the gulls. On Wed, Mar 29, 2017 at 1:48 PM peter paul wrote: > Has anyone seen this bird since this morning? Updates of any kind would > be very welcome

For birders coming from the east, take exit 5 (ramp on the right); at the light, turn left and pass under the Belt; park in the large metered lot near Kohl's. Otherwise you'd have to go well past the site before you could turn around to reach the waterfront lots accessed from the eastbound Belt

I also made an attempt on the Mew today, and also turned up empty. I went to Gravesend around 10-1130 testing out the high tide theory.

Although I only deduced his name later, I'm sure Vincent was the fellow who notified several of us that the "Common" Mew Gull was present on the rocks near the pedestrian bridge around 3:30. We walked north and found the bird right where Vincent told us it would be. We studied it briefly there
