Encountered probable Thick-billed Murre in the inlet at Lake Montauk around 3:45 pm today, bird swam into the inlet, diving occasionally as observed from the west jetty. Was re-located about 4:05 pm just south of the usual gull loafing area & sandy beach on east side of the inlet just south of the end of the stone jetty. Bird was subsequently observed swimming further south near Gosman's. Record photos obtained & attached here & in my eBird report. Mike Scheibel Brookhaven
