All,
Last summer a flock of Caspian Terns that numbered close to 300 at one time hung out near Etta Turner Park in Port Orchard. Three of the birds were banded:
I reported all three birds, but the only one reported back to me was F649 which was banded in 2013 in Walla Walla. Today there were 59 birds present, 3 of which were banded:
None of these birds were present last year, and none of last years birds are here now. Only one of the birds had a color coded band which I have reported.
