Common Tern.
Look close at this birds what do you notice?
For those who live around water you can almost hear this bird calling.

Give up on the question above? Does this help?
Update: I asked about tern banding here is the reply I got from Ryan Brady.
The DNR has been banding the Common Terns at Tern Island for many years. Many, if not most, of the birds seen locally, esp. during late spring and summer, are banded. No colors, just aluminum bands.
Thanks Ryan!

You know, I was going to comment on the band, but for what purpose? The last time I guessed correctly I didn't win a damned thing you cheap east coaster!
You have to earn "credits" before you can win. With enough credits you might be able to win a boat.
