At Caesar Creek State Park this morning there was a Common Tern first seen sitting in the water at the end of Harveysburg Rd, then flying over the water. In the cove south of Harveysburg Rd (Merganser Bay) a Franklin's Gull was resting in the choppy water, and it also took flight. It was a first year bird with a dark tail band, not quite extending to the edges. At Rocky Fork State Park there were two Franklin's Gulls - one adult, one first year - feeding in the water between the south beach and north beach (closer to the north beach.)
