One other bird was seen in a feeding flock on the 19th. Great Frigatebird One bird of this species was seen on 19 April within 200 miles of Oahu. Sooty Tern The 136 Sooty Terns were all seen within 300 miles of Oahu. Arctic Tern One bird was positively identified as this species. It was hovering over a glass fishing float. The bird was probably resting on the float and was flushed by the approaching ship. Three other terns that were not specifically identified were probably Arctic Terns. These three birds were flying in a northerly direction.
