The booby was seen at the last possible moment of daylight (after sunset) when it flew in and landed on the north corner of the main concrete block of the reef lighthouse. This was the first sighting since we arrived at 9:30 this morning. Tony Leukering spotted it as it landed and sat silhouetted on the lighthouse, in just about the only possible spot it would have been visible. Should be there at dawn but gods know where it was all day. Very little else to report from a pleasant but looong day in the tower.
