[Maine-birds] Biddeford: Royal Tern...

Hi all,

Kathryn Davis and I birded the Basket Island Causeway at Hills Beach
in Biddeford this evening. We observed juvenile and adult Common and
Roseate Terns, 5 species of gulls, growing numbers of shorebirds
(mostly Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, and
Sanderlings) and an assortment of other species including a flyby
Whimbrel and a Lesser Yellowlegs.

Then as we were leaving around 7:30pm, we spotted a ROYAL TERN
standing next to some Ring-billed Gulls on a disappearing sandbar east
of the causeway.
