Description
Imagine my surprise when I walked down to the beach on Captiva Island, Florida and this flock of Royal Terns was the only thing on the beach. Just me and the birds.
Royal terns have a long yellow bill, pale gray upper parts, black legs and a black cap and crest, which become patchy in winter. They are colonial breeders, nesting in dense colonies on beaches.
