I took a drive down to the Manasquan Inlet today to see if the recently reported Razorbill decided to stick around. At around 2:30 myself and a few other Jersey Birders saw the bird (i believe it was the same bird) fly in but continued to the other side of the jetty (not visible from the Manasquan side). 10 minutes later the/a Razorbill rounded the jetty and headed into the inlet on the far side. It quickly made its way over to “our” side of the inlet and continued to work up and down the rocks for the next hour or so (at least I left at 3:30 and it wasstill there) for close up looks! Beauty. Also had great looks at Gannets and Loons and a single Scaup (sp) flyby too. Nice day for birding!
