In case anyone is interested there is a Tundra Bean-Goose in Upper Brookville and Mill Neck on Long Island's Nassau County about two days ago. It was first found at Planting Fields Arboretum and then relocated the next morning early at Beaver Lake just north of there in Mill Neck. It seems to roost in the lake and then go to the arboretum later. I went this morning about 7am and it was on the south end of the lake with people viewing from the causeway on Cleft Rd. and me viewing it through the culvert under the train tracks as viewed from Shu Swamp Preserve boardwalk along the tracks. I saw it from about 100ft. for about five or six minutes until it swam out of view to the south east corner of the lake. Others had a much farther but longer look from the causeway. The only place to park is in the lot for Shu Swamp off Frost Mill Rd. just south of the train tracks.
