Black Tern records in Prospect

A check of the records reveals last night's sighting to be the 9th record ( not 8th as previously stated). Here are the records by date, all presumably at the Lake except the oldest 5 records which lists "Prospect Park" because they were taken from Geoffrey Carleton's supplement " BBC, c1951; Carleton, 1958 &1967 "
