[mou] RTLO, WEGR, PAJA, ARTE in Duluth

[psvingen@d.umn.edu]

I just returned from Park Point where I saw *two* Parasitic Jaegers side by side, 
one an adult light morph with elongated central rectrices, and the other a light 
morph (probable adult) that was similar in size to the first jaeger, but its 
central rectrices were not seen. Both jaegers were smaller in wing span than the 
adult Ring-billed Gulls they were harassing. The adult Arctic Tern was still 
present at 2:00 PM at the Lafayette Square location--which is at 31st St on Park 
Point, not 33rd as previously posted.
