Folks, This afternoon around 3pm I watched two caspian terns (an adult and what was presumably a HY bird) cruise north up the Hudson River from about Chelsea until I lost them in the heat haze south of the GW bridge. A friend of mine also had one this morning fly in off Manhattan Bay and judging by local reports numbers have been picking up in recent days - especially around the NJ meadowlands. Worth keeping an eye out for these as it would seem to be just about the prime week for sightings. Good birding, Dominic
