Chirp,

While watching shorebirds at Sandy Point, I was distracted by screams from a Caspian Tern. It was being harassed by a Parasitic Jaeger. This lasted only a moment before the Jaeger flew off to the south and the Tern flew inland. On the rising tide, shorebirds seen included a Surfbird, one juvenile Ruddy Turnstone, about 20 Black Turnstones, several Black-bellied Plovers, a Baird's Sandpiper, 3 juvenile Sanderlings, and a flock of about 100 peeps.
