[Bristol-Birds] Long-tailed Duck in Sullivan County

A drake Long-tailed Duck, in full breeding plumage, was at Middlebrook lake 
this morning being harassed by dive bombing Ring-billed Gulls. The bird is 
beautiful! I saw him by  the road at close range.

A Bristol-birds listserv post indicates that Josh Ferry and Dr. Gary Wallace, 
both of Milligan College, also saw the bird this morning.
