Huge black tern with white forehead. First Spotted by Brooke Ross from San Antonio, Who called me from end of dike. I saw it in bins including white forehead in channel towards St.Joe While I was standing at (27.8312326, -97.0383800) It was between st joes pier and port a pier flying low. (Still on the Nueces side of pier at that moment) Nearby the noddy in flight were many black terns. Noddy disappeared along with all the terns well over towards St. Joe island. The flock and it passed 3/4 of way or more towards St. Joseph’s pier putting it in Aransas County. (Later we rediscovered it on the port A pier only ten feet from us on way walking out, where it ignored us and stayed nearby us for photos At (27.8312326, -97.0383800).
