Stan,

directions to the bluff from which he (not me) saw the Northern Gannet an=

Red-necked Grebe:

At the end of the entrance road for Quiet Waters park is a little circle;
there is a bike path, essentially straight, that goes down from the circl=

to the edge of the water to the bluff (which is some 50-60 feet above the
water).  Once you get to the bluff, there are a couple of kiosk-tyoe
structures that would locate the spot from which he saw the Northern Gann=
et
and the Red-necked Grebe.

then at the end of the message he said:
Enter Quiet Waters; go to the left around the large building to find the
road that goes close to the river.

The Red-necked Grebe flew by from right to left toward the bay after it w=

look at all birds in the water....

Good luck!

Rob
