Media notes
horrendous distant photo, but shows short tail and overall dark upperside
Observation details
Midsized tern with uniform very dark back and conspicuous white underside. Impression was considerably more bulk and power than COTE and BOGU. The tail appeared short and dark and was also visible as such at great range. Associated with the passage of Tropical Storm Isaias, seen well and better photographed by other birders previous day and through 2 days later. Nice to run into some friends on this twitch!
