Observation details
Adult perched on small sandbar on S side of main sandbar. Full adult large tern with long orange bill, white forehead and black rear cap with crest, very white/ pale gray upperparts, dark wingtips, black legs. Second bird I spotted when walked out to beach viewing platform. Showed Imani, Ken and George. As tide rose it flew off (2:45) to SW to N end of offshore breakwater. Possibly landed or more likely kept going. Photos to come.
