Media notes
Thick-billed Murre on the Arthur Kill as seen from the big pier in front of Harbortown.
Observation details
Great find today by birders in Staten Island. Larger alcid. Dorsally black, ventrally white. No white extends behind eye. Bill has some depth, though not like Razorbill. Tail is squarish, as opposed to Razorbill's pointed tail, most apparent when bird is diving. On both the Staten Island and Perth Amboy sides of the Arthur Kill, at times fairly close.
