I tried for the razorbills earlier today but did not see them. It is
possible they were off the shore of Sea Gate. It seems most of the birds
were favoring that area today, but unfortunately I didn't have a scope or a
friend living in Sea Gate.
I did see many Red-breasted mergansers, the previously mentioned Red-necked
Grebe, and had a nice close look at a Long-tailed Duck. The grebe and duck
were at the westernmost jetty today.

Subject: [nysbirds-l] Razorbills at Coney Island
The two Razorbills reported yesterday by Shane Blodgett were still present
at Coney Island this afternoon. At around noon I observed the two birds
diving frequently very close to the western-most jetty (West 37th Street).
Another bird of possible interest at Coney Island was a Red-necked Grebe
seen on the eastern side of the Steeplechase Pier, which is nearest to West
19th Street.
Good birding,
Rob
