Just observed a Sandwich Tern on the sandbar, along with a Black Tern, 3 Roseate Ternsmany, over 60 Common Terns, and 3 Black Skimmers. Note that parking is limited to Southampton town permits 9am to 6pm on the Flying Point (west) side of Inlet.)
Very few shorebirds and Least Terns (about 12 on the east side of the cut). Guess the Leasts are all at Sagg!
