Observation details
Still here! It was last seen here on 2/2, then reappeared here on 3/1. This afternoon it was at the northeast end of harbor. I had assumed this nearly-annual visitor had moved on with our mild winter. However, the eBird map shows one sighting west of here on 3/2 at nearby at Enders Island and another on the same day further west in New Haven (morning sightings at both locations suggest different birds). The map shows another sighting on 2/12 at RI's Quonochontaug Beach. Perhaps this grebe wanders the coastline between Mystic and Chrarlestown on its winter sojourns to New England.
