Anybody know of a Goose/Widgeon in the NE US that could be used for a photo shoot in NYC harbor in September?

I think Tom Duffy has one based at Millville, New Jersey. I'm not sure how to get ahold of him though.

Tom's Widgeon is a J4F-1 Coast Guard variant, in its original markings. He's based out of Milleville, NJ.

Cheers,

There's a Goose in Hangar B at Floyd Bennett Field (Brooklyn) in NYC Police markings. Its static as far as flying goes, but it does run, and I think it will float. You'd have to contact the Park Service at Floyd Bennett...AND there's a ramp there for launching seaplanes INTO NY harbor.......

Its in a Green paint job with white letters like this one:

There is a Widgeon in upstate NY that can be seen at GBR on most weekends.
