My worst birding fear was realized Saturday with my, what turned out to be,
false negative follow-up report of the Least Tern. All the way home I felt
reluctant to make the post even though I felt confident, having used a 40x
lens, that the area was scanned thoroughly. But I was persuaded to make the
post as I recalled my own experiences of having needed follow-up reports in
the past, instead of ending up making trips for, unknown to myself,
long-departed birds. I am sorry that my post may have caused some to scrap
plans to go look for the tern. After this I am inclined to leave any
negative follow-up reporting to others, to which everyone seconded the
motion.
