After going unseen at Bunker Pond this morning, the Cape May Whiskered Tern was found on the beach opposite Coral Ave, where it was seen by our own Andy Baldelli and Bob Adamo a short time ago. Interestingly, these two legendary Riverhead, Long Island birders had converged unknowingly after close to ten hours of total travel. They had not yet spied each other at the times of their calls to me, but I'm hoping that this will be remedied!
This bird is spectacular, just an amazing looking tern, and is well worth chasing, in my opinion.
