Observation details
Completely unexpected at this date and location. Sitting in car facing the bay, when bird flew by relatively close to shore, headed from left to right (open bay towards Maurice River/Bivalve). Immediate impression was large bird with large, light colored bill, dark head and neck, light underside with dark wingtips and long tail. Confirmed species with view through binoculars before bird flew out of sight to our right. Relocated and was able to get distant photographs as the bird circled back from the river and towards the open bay.
