Parasitic Jaeger
Jack (his lighter version here) and I visited Presqu'ile today to have a gander at any shorebirds—while there we were alerted that a parasitic jaeger was just down the beach from Owen Point. I've only seen jaegers flying, so it was particularly interesting to see this one on the ground.
As we turned to watch a C-17 on approach to CFB Trenton, it must have taken off because as we turned back to look at the bird, it was gone.
