Least Tern

Sternula antillarum

Notes:

The Least Tern colony looks to be doing well at Sandy Point on Plum Island. Several times when I walked past the roped off nesting area, I was dive bombed by terns. One of them even pooped on me.

Thanks Ashley. Photographing the babies would be nice. I'll see if I can get back out there soon.
