They are starting to come back for the winter.
They have been here for a couple of weeks, but I just got around to visiting them today.
I don't know what kind he is, I think a Forster's, but I am not too good at identifying these guys.

Pretty sure it's a Least Tern. Note the yellow bill and the white forehead. Beautiful shot whoever he is!

Thank you.
I guess that it was either an Elegant or a Forster's. A birder said that they were both there. I couldn't identify it better.

Thank you, Chief. I may never know for sure when he is. But there was a big flock that was here.
