Observation details
The first of these I've seen in NY since 2011, the day after Hurricane Irene struck Long Island. Continuing adult and juvenile, the latter sporadically giving begging calls. The adult was wearing a metal band on its right leg. While flying over the bay, the juvenile dropped to the surface of the water and picked up a fairly large piece of marine vegetation, carried it aloft, then dropped it (see photo).
