--On the way home from work , along  the south lake shore, 1 FORSTERS TERN perched on the red mooring ball (for boat) Prospect Lake, near Three Sisters.

-- during the evening NY Philharmonic Parks concert, ,a little after 8 pm, Mary Eyster spotted a high flying BLACK SKIMMER over the ballfields, going due northwest. Most of our picnicking party saw the bird as well.
