I observed the Elegant Tern again this am on the Queen's Sound
flats at low tide along the causeway (RT 175) to Chincoteague.
This time the bird was much closer and I was able to get a couple
of photos before the bird got up and flew farther out on the flats
at which point I lost it behind the grass. I was even able to see
a slight pinkish tinge to the breast this time.
I will try to post photos as soon a s I can.
Good Birding,
