Common Tern

Common Tern
A surprise visitor has been enjoying Bassett Creek Park; a Common Tern.  We don't usually see these beautiful birds in our region.  It has been fun watching it dive for fish.  It becomes submerged when diving under the water to make a capture.

  1. Dan Nice pic... but I must ask, wasn't there another bird of the same species with this one , for surely you have heard it said that "One good tern deserves another... "

  2. Right you are, but sadly this tern was alone. Perhaps it was not a good Tern?
