This jaeger was seen and photographed on Sprague Lake in both Lincoln's and Adams counties. Conditions and equipment didn't allow the sort of pictures I would have liked, but this is what I was able to get. The really washed-out-looking pictures near the upper-left were toned WAY down in Photoshop, and colors aren't very true. I only lightened a few of the other pictures, and didn't do anything major.

Our group tends to lean towards a juvenile dark-morph Parasitic for the identification. Quite a few white primary shafts are visible in some, but not much in others, creating a bit of confusion. ^_^ The overall bulk and flight style was more like a Parasitic, but only Gina has seen Long-tailed before to compare with. The wings seem kind of thick like I would expect on a Parasitic, but maybe small enough for Long-tailed (I just don't have the experience!). Also, I have the impression from various sources that dark-phase juvenile Long-tailed Jaegers are more black-gray in color, whereas Parasitics show quite a bit of brown in their overall plumage. We weren't ever able to get a good look at the bill, but do check out the photo posted after this one.
Comments and discussion are welcome! This was our first inland jaeger, and it is certainly no easy identification!
All right, here's the new question. Is it a Pomarine Jaeger??? Long-tailed has been basically ruled out (in private emailing and on birdforum.net), but could it be a Pomarine (thank you Charlie Wright for pointing out the possibility)? Don't know why I didn't think of that before...
Features in favor of Pomarine Jaeger would be the white greater primary coverts on the underwing (see the second photo from the left on the second row), the pale rump, a fairly strong-looking head, right bill pattern (also in favor of Parasitic from these views), and broad-based wings. The general coloration also goes that way.
Jaeger would be cool but its the Kaiju that need more love! So bring it, lets see what I can make #MLBMDkaiju

Perhaps the same Jaeger that created such interest on The Strand in Morro Bay earlier this month.
Most often seen from shore, this one landed almost at my feet at the mouth of Old Creek in Cayucos.
A Life Bird for me.
