Observation details
This is a most unusual sighting. A juvenile accompanying an adult. We saw one instance of begging. Distinguished from Elegant Terns by short, stout bills, short not shaggy crest, and the slight separation between the eye and the dark post-ocular stripe. No vocals would have been audible to us at the distance we were from all these birds.
