Glaucous Gull here now, and continuing Iceland near Kohls. Still no Mew for me.

Although I personally have not seen it since Feb. 17-despite many attempts-local Brooklyn birder Daniel Frazier has seen and photographed it at least 2x since then, including yesterday Friday March 14. Daniel walks the entire waterfront from the Verrazanno to Caesar's Bay shopping center and this seems to possibly be the best method for searching for the bird as he saw the bird a couple of weeks ago about .25 mile south of the Verrazzanno and Josh Malbin reported it even nearer to the bridge the same day. Yesterday's reports (he saw it two different times) were in the more usual area between the Bensonhurst ballfields (which are just north of Caesar's Bay) and the pedestrian footbridge that is about .5 mile north of that. I do think the bird will depart soon though as RBGU seem to be massing to move. Thanks to Daniel for his coverage/reporting.
