Observation details
estimate; Birds were in view the entire time I was present and none landed while I was there. The most in view at one time was 12; some birds appeared to move through, as they flew out of sight heading north behind the island; while others did some loops and seemed to be interested in a group of skimmers roosting along the shoreline. Birds allowed for nice views as they flew/hovered into the wind close to the sound side shore. All dark black on topside; including head, neck and tail. Conditions were poor for photography.
