Hi everyone, and thanks for all your quick responses. Several people have
mentioned that Caspian Terns are indeed occasionally found in W.NF.

I just returned from 4 1/2 days at a conference in Corner Brook, NF. We
had time to visit Gros Morne N.P., Blow Me Down Prov. Park, etc. The
weather and the scenery were both stunning. The birding was good, but as
expected - with 1 exception. Today there was a Caspian Tern (possibly 2)
loafing around and fishing, close to the power plant at Deer Lake. Does
anyone know if this is something expected, or a rarity for that
