The migration went away when May did. We haven’t birded much since then. It’s not like there aren’t still birds around. We’re just spoiled. We watch and enjoy the birds at our pond, but we don’t really go after anything. But Sunday, we heard there was a brown noddy at Horace Caldwell Pier. A brown noddy and a sooty tern too. Both accidentals here. Very few records. Both lifers for us. We went. We saw.
We saw brown pelicans, laughing gulls, royal terns, least terns, pigeons, grackles, surfers, fisherpeople, a small hammerhead shark (They called it a hammerhead, but it didn’t really look like a hammerhead to me. The head looked more shovelish.), trout, blue sky. Didn’t see any noddies or sooty terns. Nice day on the pier though.
