This morning from about 8:15 to 10:30 we watched the terns and gulls off the point and camp Hero. No Sabine's Gull of course but we did have 3 different Parasitic Jaegers - a dark bird, a subadult and a light form adult. We only saw 1 Gannet and a flock of 4 Black Scoters - no BlackTerns, surprisingly, in any location that we visited. Not much of note on Sagg Pond, but at Mecox there was one Caspian Tern, 2 Royal Terns, and a couple of White-rumped Sandpipers among the Forster's Terns Observers were me, Bobby Rosetti and Peter Polshek at the point who spotted 2 of the jaegers --
