I was at Higgins (Scarborough) yesterday trying to brush up on shore birds. Are the two main groups of nesting terns Common and Least? Also, there was a flock (6 or so?) of killdeer at the edge of the shore... I always think of these as inland birds? The plumage is pretty distinctive, so I feel pretty confident about the id. Also present: Bonaparte's gull flock, a few piping plovers, a (lesser, I think) yellowlegs, plus the usual other assortment of common gull species. And a laughing gull, I think.
Still need lots of practice.
