Subject: [pen-bird] Royal Tern at Gazos Beach this morning
Hi all,

I went to Gazos beach this morning hoping to see the Kittiwake reported by Marty Freeland yesterday. The gull flock was not visible from the parking lot so I walked down he trail a bit and saw that there were gulls on the north side of the beach and the Royal Tern was back on the beach among them. No Kittiwake however. I should note that the trail is in bad shape towards the lower portion. Deep water and mud and little areas to sidestep that. Here’s some photos from my eBird list.
