On Jan. 1, Carl Schwartz and some of the other participants in the Riveredge
field trip told me they had seen two Red-throated Loons in the Port
Washington
harbor, and I looked for them that afternoon and one other time since then
without finding them. Today, however, at least one was in the harbor. It
was diving continuously, and since Red-throated Loons are known for swimming
long distances, surfacing at different places all over the harbor. Since I
never saw two of them in a single scope view, I am reporting only one, but
there could have been two.
I did not find the Lesser Black-backed Gull reported by Andrea Szymczak
yesterday, but I did see 4 Great Black-backed and 3 Glaucous Gulls on the
breakwalls
of the harbor.
