Observation details
The Noddy was literally sitting on a rock about 20 feet from Greg Cook when I finally saw what Greg was photographing. I was able to get close without flushing it. Thanks Greg! This occurred about 3/4 of the way out on the jetty When the Noddy flew it didn't go far. Offering us great looks while it fed near us with black terns. It finally flew further out where we lost sight of it 2nd photo: Noddy flying below sandwich tern and black tern. 3rd photo shows the "ratty look" of the tail and wings. The bird gets around just fine though.
