Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: All viewings were to the east, but in the mornings before the sun rose. All were sunny days. Bird was standing on a beach at a distance of 75-100 feet. I was using a KOWA TSN-4 telescope (20-60X). During flight, I used Swift Audubon binoculars (8.5 X 44) looking mostly east at distances of 75-300 feet.
