Observation details
Known to be in location and reported by many other birders recently. Dark upperparts with white eyebrow extending above eye, deeply forked tail, appeared larger than many nearby common terns and easily stood out from them. I first spotted it at approximately 1:55pm on the northeast side of the island up high near square manmade structure / bird blind, then it flew slightly south and perched below the lighthouse, finally it flew to the southeast corner of the island where it hung around for the remainder of the time. Our group notified the other boat nearby and they came over and also saw the bird. Many photos.
