The juveniles make this kind of a challenge. Does anyone see any interesting terns besides Common Terns? This was at Plymouth Beach MA.

I can see a possible Forster's towards the back, but I don't see anything remotely big enough to be a Caspian or a Royal in there.

There are definitely Ruddies and Semis in there.
Here's a cool montage that should nab anything other than a Common (hopefully)

Yep, I do see the plover and a few peeps in the bottom right corner. Agree that all the terns look to be Common's.
