I saw 4 CASPIAN TERNS foraging at Van Dyne Spoor Rd on Sunday. They were distant but I thought they were adults and that it would be too early for any juveniles flying. In Ithaca I've assumed adults at this time of year to have had an early nest failure. It's not far for them from breeding grounds in Lake Ontario.
