Andrew, immature Common Terns around right now, but not so likely up the
river, as you said. Forinstance,they are resting on the beach at Woorim
(Bribie Island) in between fishing trips.

Hi Jim,
Common Terns have migrated north by this time and are not commonly seen on the
river. The black-billed terns you are seeing are the (much larger) Gull-billed
Terns. The red-billed birds are certainly Caspians, and Crested Terns (with
yellow bills) are also often seen.
Cheers
Andrew
