In Central Park (Manhattan, N.Y. City) on early Tuesday a.m. (17 May),
a tern I'd seen as a fast fly-by and in low light was a *possible*
Forster's, & goes into my own notes simply as "Sterna" [genus] "sp."
All terns are rare in Central Park at least in modern times, despite
the above-noted & other tern species breeding not far away.
[n.b., for today Wed. 5/18, Central Park is again quite active with
many migrants.]
