This morning Jean Shum and I (Peter Post) had a pair of Roseate Terns in the tern colony at Nickerson Beach. One of the birds had a USF&W metal band on each leg. Unfortunately we could not read the numbers.
Hopefully they are nesting at Nickerson. Roseate Tern is a very rare breeder this far west on Long Island.
