Fwd: [nysbirds-l] Tufted Duck, Huntington Harbor, Suffolk Co.

[Derek Rogers]

The Tufted Duck is still being seen, sometimes at very close range, in the
previously reported area. The best viewing area has been along the
bulkhead, just west of the Halesite Fire Department (left onto Anchorage
Lane off of 110). The duck remains in the company of Buffleheads,
Red-breasted Mergansers, some Gulls, and the finder, Brent Bomkamp.
Excellent find, Brent. The bird did take a couple of short flights within
the bay area, sometimes disappearing behind the various floating docks that
line the shore. It generally stayed within 200 yards of the described
bulkhead area.

The link below shows some digi-scope photos of the bird. I feel very
fortunate that yet another Tufted Duck was found right around the corner
from my office.
