This Forsters tern is so happy it got a fish!

I think this is a tern with its head stuck in some algae after a dive. It was able to free itself. This was taken in late May at the East Pond of Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge.

Common terns ...um... making more common terns.
They aggressively defend the area around their nests.

Being stared down by a least tern.
These are considered threatened, and there are approximately 21,500 breeding pairs in the coastal population. They breed on the beaches of long island.

Good morning. 🌊🌊🌊
It's another Monday, the great get up and go to work day - for many people anyway. That's what they say. But for me no way!
Sorry I couldn't help myself. 😁 I'm thinking about what I'll do today. 😂
First thing is to get this toot finished. It usually takes me a while. I look for a photo, process the photo, write a narrative of some sort, usually morning musings, find a quote that kind of fit my musings, and then write an alt text. But it is the way - I've been watching the Mandalorian.
"Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I've never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl." - Anne Frank

Bridled and Sooty Terns
Since one good tern deserves another...
Both on Great Bird Island, Antigua and Barbuda
These are both fairly widespread marine birds, migratory and often found on tropical islands globally. The Sooty Tern only returns to land to breed, while the slightly smaller Bridled Tern prefers inshore waters.

Something that I am trying to do this year is #explore my own home. Each month I try something new. This month I finally went for a swim at the #beach. I found this rather lovely hidden gem #FingalBeach
I am not going to lie. The reason I ended up choosing it was because of the name. I got to visit #scotland last year but not #FingalCaves so I jumped at the chance to visit this.
And it was glorious. A quiet beach. A beach away from cities and tall buildings. I saw #Terns and baby bush turkeys. The water was insanely clear and the litter leaf Forrest was so much fun to walk through. I saw the #volcanic rock, #australianwildflowers and cook island. I have a list of things to research and write about and can't wait to start.
I'm sunburnt and exhausted but it was so much fun and I already have plans to go back.

This is a very nice picture, I am however afraid that those beautiful birds are #terns not #gulls (related taxonomic groups though). More precisely, I'd assume arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea). When did you take the pic?
