So I went to a small (actually large) lake that is nearby in Carmel, NY, and during the winter, I saw some black and white waterfowl swimming around near the man-made earthen bridge that crosses a cove. This past week, I went there again to try and see if the black-and-white birds were still there (I had not seen them since I left college). They didn't seem to be there. But knowing that I don't like to leave empty handed, I scanned the water in the distance, and noticed what I thought was a sunken log with the pointed end sticking out of the water. I snapped a picture, just to see if it was a log, and it turns out the the bird below was really the "log"!
It reminds me of a Great Northern Diver, but couple pics show a more sloping forehead, reminiscent of cormorants. and the "bill" looks too thin for a GN diver, but that could be the light deflection...
Anyone care to take a gamble on this?
