They are both hatch year 2018 birds. Not sure of the locations of origin
at the moment except that they are Oregon birds from the main range (ie,
Florence to Bandon). Will be able to fill you in later this week.

Also, Neal Maine sent me photos of an immature LONG-TAILED JAEGER
he found consorting with gulls on the beach a couple days ago.
