A lakewatch from 8 am till 3 pm saw a couple of fronts passing and NNW winds to ~20. At 12:30 pm an immature intermediate Long-tailed Jaeger cruised lazily but with direct intent to the east for extended views (although distant), before wheeling around and up and dropping to the water. At 2 pm I picked up on two LTJA purposefully booking it west together- they interacted briefly with a wimpy aerial scuffle then both pushed west again. No chasing/harassing of the large numbers of Bonaparte's Gulls and Common Terns. Field characters and ID based on shape and build, giss, flight style and behavior. The duo continued west, shifting into the Rocky River Park "bay area"
