Gregor Tims: "From what I can make of the article, this should be confirmed as an Elegant Tern as it mentions the colour-ringed hybrid offspring resembling Sandwich Terns?"
Peter: "Most recent message (11.35) is of negative news and then:
"colour-ringed adult still then flew off towards mouth of harbour; bird is a confirmed Elegant seen at Banc d'Arguin, Gironde, France, until mid-May""
Adam: "Just spoke to the finder (who also found the [Semipalmated] Plover there). The tern has flown off and has not yet been relocated. It is bird C in the sample of 3 birds tested, green over yellow and metal over white."
