Corey, etc., On January 13, 1991 I was with a Huntington Audubon group who found one behind the Coast Guard Station at Jones Beach. It flew into the small cove just northwest of the CG station and after a few mintes flew away west. I believe that was the only sighting of that bird. I don't remember everyone in the group, but at least Bob May, Howard Boltson (the leaders) and June Christenson were there Dave
Date: Sun, 22 Dec 2013 09:03:34 -0800 From: [email protected] Subject: [nysbirds-l] Info Request on Nassau County Black Guillemots and GPS Directions To: [email protected] All, I looked through eBird records and in Bull's Birds and can find no reference to previous records of Black Guillemot in Nassau County. Bull mentions that in the last twenty years all records were from Suffolk County but does not specifically say that there are no records in Nassau County. He also mentions the record from Rye in Westchester and the one on Lake Champlain. Ebird has one record from Breezy Point and everything else is in Suffolk County. So, does anyone know of previous Nassau County Black Guillemots? It seems unlikely to me that one has never been in Nassau County before. Finally, for those who are going to chase this bird, the way I managed to get there is to use the intersection of "The Boulevard" and "Cliff Way" in the town of Sea Cliff as my destination with my GPS.
