Fortunately the bird stuck around and I saw reports of it while at work on Friday. And even more fortunately, Friday was my work&#8217;s Christmas Party, so we got out early. I ran for the bird and it was still present &#8211; woohoo! Orange County life bird #254 and OC year bird #223! The bird spent most of it&#8217;s time tucked in, but finally, just as it was getting dark, a bunch of gulls made a raucous and the bird finally looked up and I was able to get some grain pics. It made me think &#8211; it was this time last year I was trying hard for Canvasback in OC because we had so many just downriver in Rockland County near my work. The bird appeared to be settling in for the night as I left &#8211; hopefully it will stick around for a little while so more folks get to see it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8802\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8802\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/?attachment_id=8802\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8802\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8802\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/121518-CANV.jpg 1444w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8802\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">~This was my view of the bird for 99% of my time at the Newburgh Waterfront.~<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday, Bruce Nott found a CANVASBACK at the Newburgh Waterfront.
