Caspian Tern

Hello Hivers

Caspian Tern

This is the largest tern in the world. Easily identified by it's bright orange bill, the black cap and........

black legs.
Widely distributed, it has adapted to both salt and fresh water, where they consume their prefered diet of fish.
These ones in the photos were doing just that, all flying in circles scanning the water and diving in for their catch.

Thanks to Cornel Lab of Ornithology for the map.
