Observation details
Storm-blown bird from Hurrican Irma. First seen and photographed by Scott Davis about an hour before I arrived. Medium size tern, very dark brown above from head to tail with what looked to be slightly lighter upper wing panels, with white forehead and thin white outer tail feathers on a forked tail. Black bill. White below, with dark trailing edge on wings, white belly fading to dark vent. Slow, purposeful wing beats interspersed with flat winged glides. Tail feathers mostly white with some dark lengthwise marks when tail was flared. Feeding on small fish on surface of the lake. Observed for about 20 minutes.
