HI EVERYONE. The East wind at his time of year frustrates birds heading SE from our Arctic. So it was today. At 12noon there was a very large flock of COMMON TERNS. 50+ flew down past Kettle Point on Lake Huron
The exciting thing was that the flock held at least 8 ARCTIC TERNS!!! as well as a couple of LITTLE GULLS. They were all restless and left rapidly when one of the local Bald Eagles glided through. good birding.
