Arriving home last night from the week in Atlanta I learned about the Black 
Skimmer at the Rowing Center on Amnicola Drive.

SO - I was out there by 7 a.m. today - never saw the skimmer.

Went on a butterfly/ dragonfly/ damselfly - and birding field trip then after a 
quick late lunch I went back to the river.  In three hours I bombed out on the 
skimmer.

However, I had one Bridled Tern flying up river.  I first saw it in front of 
the Boat House Restaurant.  It was not lingering.  This was about 6:00 p.m.

Then about 6:30 there were two Forster's Terns which stayed in the area for 
about an hour.

Nothing else notable was seen while out there.
