2 drake Harlequin Ducks have arrived in Jones Inlet, on the Point Lookout side. About 10 Common Eiders were in the surf off Jones Beach West End 2. 2 Royal Terns continue in the vicinity of the Coast Guard station. My surprise sighting of the day was a juvenile, now first winter plumage, Common Tern in the Point Lookout parking lot. Its presence in the parking field (especially in good weather) as opposed to November gets my vote as the more unusual aspect.
