This was the Presque Isle weekend of “events for people in really good shape,” which sadly excludes the entire BirdingPI.com staff: Erie Marathon on Sunday, & Barber ‘Beast on the Bay’ on Saturday. Due to the commotion + other logistical issues, unfortunately no Gull Point content again this week. However, ‘the game’s afoot’ (migration-wise), with some nice shorebird sightings Saturday afternoon (after the rain but cloudy) at Leo’s Landing:

It’s Gray Catbird! x more Caspian Tern (carrying a stick apparently):

















Trail conditions: locally muddy at usual locations, e.g., Duck Pond Trail & west end Long Pond Trail.
Coming up soon, more Great Egret!
The Team Leader expressed himself in a professional manner and showed his humorous side: take the next Tern, indeed.
Or, as this Team member would say, “As the World Terns.”
I think “It’s time we had a Chat” from the ‘Big “Valley”‘ post was the best
