Frank M. and Sylvia Kleff of Lyndhurst found a winter-plumage male Long-tailed Duck in Teal Pool just before 10 a.m. today.
It was near the point in the Lyndhurst Nature Reserve when I grabbed a few quick pix. Still there as of 10:45, under water two-thirds of the time.. (Thanks, Frank and Sylvia!)
N.J. Meadowlands Naturalist Mike Newhouse mentions this duck at the end in our latest column for The South Bergenite. Link is here.
