Melierax 1,033 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Not IDable without photos or in-person recognition of features, namely bill size. Not sure which one is more likely - I saw both when I was in San Diego in summer a while ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DLecy 300 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Royal Tern is much more likely in Orange Co. at the end of November. ELTE winter much farther south. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
