Hello group,

After several unsuccessful attempts to locate an Elegant tern, I was close to concluding that I was on a Tweeters new member initiation "Snipe hunt". However, upon returning from Ocean Shores on Monday, I reviewed digital video and found......an Elegant Tern standing next to three Caspians. I had seen so many orange billed juvenile Caspians with my binoculars, that I overlooked this bird among the hundreds of shore birds present (and I have much to learn). It was worth the search- beautiful bird. I would like to attach this short digital video to a group e-mail from my I-Mac but do not now how to do so. Any Mac Tweeter willing to assist?
Also, I would like to thank all Tweeters posters for their e-mails. I have learned much from your observations.
