I photographed one at a sewage treatment facility on Long Island in the late
70s/early 80s, but back then we all just assumed these birds were escapes. Of
course, back then, they probably were.

That record does not come up on the NYSARC reports database page.

I saw it 8 Sep 1995. I thought everyone agreed it was of captive origin, so
perhaps no one submitted a NYSARC report?

Hi all. Does anyone know if the Common Shelduck from Jamaica Bay was accepted
or not? It was seen in the early 2000's I think. Just wondering.
