Herring, Laughing, Ring-billed Gulls- thousands
Caspian, Sandwich, COMMON, Royal Terns

NORTHERN GANNET- 2 juveniles

I was surprised to see and add Common Tern to my Florida List. It had a larger carpal bar than illustrated in most books. I had great pictures of all the larid species, including the Common Tern.
Ulumay Wildlife Refuge- no Ruddy Duck, but many other duck species flying around. Wood Stork, herons, Roseate Spoonbills prevelant. Hundreds of American White Pelicans. In the area were many ducks in the bay, and I also saw 2 Bald Eagle fly overhead where I am staying. I had great photos of a Painted Bunting. Still waiting to go to Viera.
