I just read a report on ABA Facebook of this sighting.   That is all I have.

Georgia Doyle and I are here now, watching this adult jaeger. Cannot see a long tail, but overall size and length relative to gulls plus very limited white on upper side of primaries in flight indicate Long-tailed Jaeger.

Feeling like a fool. The jaeger just put on a show and displayed all characteristics of adult Parasitic Jaeger.  Apologies to the original reporter for creating confusion. It IS Parasitic Jaeger. Dave Learherman arrived in time for the show.
