Re: Murre still at Ft Macon; Cape Hatteras grebe not



It might be mentioned that there is much more "hard bottom" associated
with the Morehead port and the borders of Radio Island than there is at
Fort Macon.  Thus, just because the bird is not being seen at Fort Macon
doesn't mean that it has really left the area.

Saturday, when the bird was not seen at Fort Macon, perhaps it had moved
some distance up the Morehead channel, or maybe up the east side of
Radio Island.
