I spent several hours searching for the reported Western Grebe at Piermont Pier this morning. My search began around 11: 10 a.m. and I finally called it a day around 3:00 p.m. after I began to get soaked for the second time around.
Of note, was one Horned Grebe loafing with some Ruddy Ducks and Buffleheads. A few of the local birders who had seen the Western Grebe on previous days, were present at various intervals throughout the time I was there - they also could not locate the bird. Good and responsible birding!
