Fewer birds than yesterday, but a pair of parasitic jaegers made the morning. The jaegers flew in from the east together and harassed a small group of ring-billed gulls before continuing west. The acrobatics performed by the two was amazing. It seems like they harassed the gulls just for the fun of it.
