While the odds of *two* breeding-plumaged Yellow-billed Loons on Lake Ontario must be tremendously small, it should be noted that Broadway Road is about 60 miles east of Hamlin Beach, where Chris Wood & Jessie Barry had one on October 16, last seen flying west. In any case, following today's sighting, whether the same or a second bird, loon gathering spots on the south shore of Lake Ontario should be carefully checked in hopes of finding the bird on the water.
