[birdky] Black Terns

I went back to the 739 transient lake this morning. About the same mix of 
shorebirds were there and lots of swallows. Five white terns made one or two 
passes over the lake and left. I can't recollect enough to choose between 
Forster's and Common. Two other terns showed up and continued circling with the 
swallows the whole time I was there. Thinking there would be some overlooked 
detail that would keep me from IDing them, I kept trying for a picture but 
could not follow them with the scope well enough to even try. It finally 
occured to me to use the plain camera and use the view finder instead of the 
screen. I got some few tiny images. These were Black Terns.
