Bridled Terns - Melbourne / Patrick AFB Beach

Prior to Hurricane Dennis arriving, I took the opportunity to scout for some pelagics from Patrick AFB beach (North Melbourne). Of note - 7 Bridled Terns, 4 Northern Gannets, 3 Magnificent Frigatbirds (about 15 - 20 feet away, almost directly overhead), and of course a smattering of the usual suspects.

No shearwaters or petrels...maybe on Sunday.

Happy Hunting
