I just returned from Park Point where I saw *two* Parasitic Jaegers side by side, one an adult light morph with elongated central rectrices, and the other a light morph (probable adult) that was similar in size to the first jaeger, but its central rectrices were not seen. Both jaegers were smaller in wing span than the adult Ring-billed Gulls they were harassing. The adult Arctic Tern was still present at 2:00 PM at the Lafayette Square location--which is at 31st St on Park Point, not 33rd as previously posted. -- Peder
