- Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S92964844
- Comments: "**rare, especially in the 5 boroughs, but increasing - probably the bird that's been hanging around Newark Bay since last Oct. Slender Sulid, appearing smaller than a gannet. Long, thin, very pointed wings, fairly long, tapered tail, large projecting head with long, pale, pointed bill. Solid dark brown upperparts, head, and breast with sharply demarcated white belly. Moving quickly toward Brooklyn waterfront, heading vaguely NE. Flap-and-glide flight style, wingbeats deep but quick, almost jaeger-like. Seen from Staten Island Ferry. Photos tba"
