Observation details
Continuing winter adult. First seen flying over the channel and west along the beach, then relocated a few hundred yards west on the beach. Fed in the surf for some time accompanying two Bonaparte’s. Black inner primaries with two white outermost primaries; frosty gray mantle; blood red legs and bill. In flight appeared a bit less tern-like than Bonaparte’s, somewhat more like a larger gull like Laughing. Fantastic views at close range, photos.
