sbruenjes Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I saw this bird at a Wildlife refuge in Ocean County, NJ. I thought it was a Forster's tern, but Merlin came back with two of the three pics as a Roseate Tern (the middle pick came back Forster's tern...). I can't figure out to differentiate the two, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) Forster's beginning molt. Notice the orange legs and orange at the base of the bill. Edited August 1, 2020 by Benjamin 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
