Re: [nysbirds-l] Pacific loon query

[Andrew Baksh]

Gary Strauss just called to report that the Pacific Loon is being seen at the 
Town Marina in Oyster Bay. It was a bit noisy where I took his call so please 
forgive the scant details on the location.

Cheers,

Re: [nysbirds-l] Pacific loon query

[gabriel willow]

 Someone sent me a photo of it this morning around 8am. Yesterday afternoon it 
was hiding out in the enclosed dock area to the east at the end of the private 
marina. It would disappear for ~20min at a time, perhaps sheltering underneath 
the docks, and then pop back up, but was sometimes hard to see among the docks.
Good luck if you go!

To my knowledge, the loon was last seen around 1:30 off Florence Ave. It had 
spent maybe 4 hours going back and forth between a cove to the left and a bit 
beyond the end of the pier just to the left of the viewing spot. It showed no 
inclination to go anywhere beyond, but I’d think the falling tide might have 
forced it to change that pattern a bit. From all appearances so far, it seems 
to prefer to stay reasonably close to structures (piers, marinas, docks). So 
these create blind spots, where it could be hidden for extended periods. 
Hopefully, it’s still in the area and will come out into a better viewing spot.

Re: [nysbirds-l] Pacific loon query

[Steve Walter]

To my knowledge, the loon was last seen around 1:30 off Florence Ave. It had
spent maybe 4 hours going back and forth between a cove to the left and a
bit beyond the end of the pier just to the left of the viewing spot. It
showed no inclination to go anywhere beyond, but I'd think the falling tide
might have forced it to change that pattern a bit. From all appearances so
far, it seems to prefer to stay reasonably close to structures (piers,
marinas, docks). So these create blind spots, where it could be hidden for
extended periods. Hopefully, it's still in the area and will come out into a
better viewing spot. But I have not seen any reports yet today. High tide is
around noon, for whatever effect that might have.
