Observation details
Heard them as soon as I arrived on the beach but couldn't locate them; as I approached the Basket Island causeway from the south they flew up from the behind the causeway, circled twice, and then headed south. Most of the time they were accompanied by a gull or two, not so much harassing them as escorting them out of the area. Large tern-like birds with long wings and large, elongated bill with the lower mandible longer than the upper.
