Observation details

On the mudflats off the bird walk. Nonbreeding individual with an almost excessive white forehead. Told from royal tern (unexpected inland) by stocky body, dark primaries, large red bill with dark dusky tip, and shape of remaining dark crown over eyes - eye patch reminiscent of nonbreeding Forster’s tern, rather than a band like Thalasseus terns
