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.
