We saw quite a few Least Terns on Coast Guard Beach the other day. They are New England’s smallest tern at 9.” They nest in small colonies and make their nests in the sand by scraping it. (Click link for another photograph.)
Beautiful bird, don’t you think? Love the food in his bill! Have you ever seen a Least Tern?
I’m tempted to ask what’s the most least terns you’ve ever seen. 🙂
