Observasjonsdetaljer
IBC scientific name: Gelochelidon macrotarsa. I had it as macrotarsa, but eBird reviewer James Eaton, on 19/10/2021 says: The small size, especially the bill and shape of the ear coverts (a little rounded) point to this bird being an affinis Gull-billed Tern. I've also photographed this bird and believe it to be an affinis, in case you would like to alter your checklist to reflect this also.
