Observation details
AD Notes added 19 Feb 2022: At the time of this record (2009), LBBG was only slightly rarer in winter on Long Island than it is at present (2022), but the age distribution and habitat preference were very different. In the early years of regular winter occurrence, most records involved adults returning year on year to well-defined territories, generally on north facing (i.e., non-oceanic) shores, such as Iron Pier Beach, Lazy Point, and Navy Beach. In contrast, contemporary records are much more apt to involve immatures appearing sporadically along the outer beaches.
