Currently being seen off the patio at the Point, an adult winter Little Gull is 
being seen. Bonaparte’s in the area as well.

RE:[nysbirds-l] Little Gull+ Montauk

2018-02-04 Thread Shaibal Mitra
The biggest surprise at Montauk Point this morning was a Dovekie that flew in 
from the south, passed back and forth close below the concession building, sat 
briefly, then flew back out to the south. Other highlights there included the 
continuing adult Little Gull (two brief appearances), immature Glaucous Gull, 
and larger numbers of Razorbills (about 80).

An Eared Grebe on Lake Montauk, visible from the south end, was an exciting new 
find.

The Pink-footed Goose continues at Montauk Downs gold course, along with two 
Snow Geese, and the number of distinguishable Iceland Gulls at the Lake Montauk 
Inlet has been revised up to at least seven (two juvs this morning were both 
paler than yesterday's juv; two distinguishable TYs, an adult-like bird with a 
dull, black-tipped bill, and a full adult).

An adult Little Gull was present off Montauk Point, Suffolk County, Friday 
afternoon and again this morning. When visible, this bird has been in loose 
association with about 30 Bonaparte's Gulls, milling over a spectacular 
aggregation of scoters and eiders, directly off of the concession building. It 
has ben missed, however, both last evening and during late morning today.

Other notable birds at Montauk Point included an immature male King Eider, an 
immature Glaucous Gull, and small numbers of Razorbills.

At least five distinguishable Iceland Gulls are present at Lake Montauk Inlet, 
and another immature male King Eider was seen at nearby Culloden Point.

Ditch Plains featured a male Harlequin Duck and a female King Eider.
