Thanks to Kayo Roy and Jim Pawlicki for getting the word out about this
bird. I originally spotted it from the control gates on the Ontario side of
the river, all the way across the river on the ice in front of Goat Island,
a half-mile or so away. (Anyone who is in the market for a good scope, I
can make a strong recommendation!) We raced over to Goat Island, New York
where Betsy and I got close views and managed a few quick digiscoped photos
before it took flight. It was not seen the rest of the day.
To see photos, check out Betsy's web site (link below) and click on

Good birding!
Willie
