Both jaegers remain on Barren Reservoir. They have been moving from Bailey's
Point campground to the Goose Island/Narrows cut-through area and spending
considerable amounts of time resting on the water. Either Bailey's
campground/boat ramp or Peninsula parking lot would be best sites if searching
from the bank.
A boat is a big help in locating and getting good looks at the birds. Tom
Durbin and I sat quietly with them in the middle of the lake for a long time
this morning. The Parasitic came so close to the boat that I had to go to the
close-focus setting on my camera lens, about 9', as I photographed it
preening. The boaters on Barren may be the first humans these birds have
seen. The Long-tailed still has some down feathers on its forehead.
