Talked with a photographer who had an enormous lens pointed at a Black-neck stilt nest. Never saw anything so awkward as a stilt trying to settle down on to a nest.

Got to look at a nearby Tern for a long time, but didn't see black going down the back of its neck as the field guide demanded. Also saw Dowitcher sp.
