Patricia Lindsay reports that she and others just observed a breeding-plumaged
Sandwich Tern at Nickerson Beach, Nassau County. The bird landed briefly and
then flew off, but people are continuing to watch the loafing flocks.

There was a pair of Sandwich Terns resting amongst the Black Skimmers at
Eastern Nickerson Beach today.
Also, I heard there were Royal Terns at Nickerson as well (cannot confirm).

Brendan Fogarty just called to report a Sandwich Tern he observed and
photographed at Nickerson Beach near the Tern Colony.
Unfortunately, the bird was flushed by someone on the beach and was last
seen heading towards Jones Inlet.
Folks in the vicinity might want to check known Tern loafing
