Observation details

Video later, distant. Dark (but poor lighting) when in flight. Flight was direct and level until interacting / chasing gulls. No tail projections seen personally (distant views), however when later going through video frames did see a small central projection in a single frame (will attempt to locate again and screenshot). Smaller than HERGs. Flash of white shafts in primaries. Shorted video clip of interaction between jaeger and gull, begins at 16 seconds:
