Observation details
Upon reaching the vicinity of the island, I was overwhelmed by a number of terns flying overhead, calling, and dive-bombing just overhead. After a few minutes they settled back into their activity with many birds landing on the island itself while others fished offshore. A steady flight of adults began making flights to the island carrying fish in the bills and landing with food items. One individual was observed entering a rocky crevice on the west side of the island below the cormorant nests before exiting and flying back out over the water. Consulted to G. Mittelhauser about appropriate coding.
