Mystery solved, thanks to Jim Hodgson and Wes Fritz. Jim was nearby so with his help, we digi-scoped a good photo and Jim sent it to SLACK, where Wes identified it as a Forster's Tern, probably the same one reported previously this week.

Sitting on small log preening. Out of range for my camera. Has characteristics of Common Tern but I am not sure.
