Observation details
Terns with thick black bills. I never saw all 10 at the same time, but at one point I saw 7 birds fly away to the east, and almost immediately after, there were 3 birds standing on the ground where the 7 had originally come from. The birds continued to come and go throughout the hour that I was there, and as many as 9 were visible at one time. I took a lot of digiscope photos, but unfortunately only one of them turned out halfway decent. I also got a video of a pair courting and copulating (see below).
