This is a very significant record, probably the first for the ACT.
Fascinating that it is still in breeding plumage, considering that it breeds in Siberia.
Many thanks Milburn.
Cheers - David

An adult Eastern Common Tern (Sterna hirundo longipennis), still in breeding plumage, was with the flock of Whiskered Terns (approximately 15) at the largest pond at Fyshwick Sewage Treatment Plant this evening until sunset. The bird was visible from the Old Dairy Flat Road at the heavy green gate looking towards the green hut.
