I missed the Western Grebe late yesterday afternoon and then read the post from Jerry Lazarczyk this morning and decided to try again on the eastern access to Chimney Bluffs. It was a much better day to try as there was less wind and therefore less wave action and there was better light today. We arrived at 11:00 am and found Curt Fox searching. Bob found the Grebe in just minutes. It was out to the west or left from the parking area. Too far away for a photo for us. Then it swam in closer. Then Jean Skelly arrived and got a look through Bob's scope before it disappeared behind the cliffs. Curt climbed the walk to the top of the bluffs and saw it from there. It might have been possible to see it from the beach also but we didn't try that as I had to get back to work. Leona Lauster Lyons, NY Thanks again to Chuck Gibson. --
