Drake Barrow's Goldeneye just seen from the runway north of the boat ramp at
Floyd Bennett Field. I walked out to the beach heading a little south before
scoping the bay. The bird was in the company of 4 female and 2 drake Common
Goldeneyes at a good distance. For field reference - there was a smoke stack
in my FOV via scope in the distance and I believe the flock was drifting to
the right of Ruffle Bar. Good luck if you try for it.
Good and responsible birding!
