I was able to get some photos of the Jaeger at Melmerby Beach. See:
https://picasaweb.google.com/j.f.kearney/PomarineJaeger#.  It looks like a
Pomarine Jaeger to me as well. I believe the bird is injured. It can fly but
it has a drooping left wing. This is especially evident when it walks; the
primary tips dragging on the ground on its left side.

Hi all

Here is an update on the Pomerine Jaeger ( pretty sure of ID?) found at
Melmerby Bch. PP May 12 by Dr. Paul MacDonald and seen as recently as 7:30
this morning May 16 by Paul. 

 

Charlie Kendell had this section to survey dring the NS Migration Count and
he and wife Judy successfully discovered the Jaeger about 1 p.m, about
mid-way along the road that traverses the park. It was sitting on the road
and Charlie got some fine close-up shots.

 

Karen and Kit Macleod and I watched it being chased from the beach by an
immature Bald Eagle on Sunday May 15 at 9:30 a.m. It disappeared torard
Merigomish Hbr. 

 

Paul called me this morning ( May  16) and he noted the Jaeger flush from
mid-way along the park road to Roy I. and was between the road and the inner
bay. It lifted as he droveby, but settled down after he drove by. 

 

An adult Lesser Black-backed Gull was seen at Waterside PP on May 14.( KJM)

 

cheers

Ken
