Hurricane Arthur brought in exactly one storm bird this morning: a Great Blue Heron that landed briefly on the beach before heading north toward the marshes.
A Roseate Tern has been seen loafing in front of the tern colony the last two days, and a pair of Gull-billed Terns were hawking above the colony yesterday. Beside a few late scoters, a female Red-breasted Merganser, and a female Long-tailed Duck that have been around occasionally, there has not been much else of note.
