I haven't seen any Northern Gannet reports from western Long Island Sound so far this spring, but I did see one bright adult today deep inside Little Neck Bay off Fort Totten (Queens County), while watching my son's soccer game.
Last year, I received reliable reports of several gannets actively feeding in Manhasset Bay, just to the east. Now that they're venturing into even more inland waters, I can only hope that they're good judges of water depth........
