Subject: Re: [ia-bird] Not a sighting. ? about the Arctic Tern
Good evening,

The gate to the beach is closed at the little toll kiosk but I parked
immediately to the left and walked down about 2/10 mile. Tern was present
at 5:15pm today but its favorite buoy was removed by park staff and it was
flying from beach toward marina shortly to the north.

I almost missed it but noticed it at last moment to capture this meh pic.
