The white wings of a fairy tern can be seen against the back drop of a blue sky. The foliage of a tree is below the bird.

It’s nesting season for the manu-o-Kū. They’re all over the city right now behaving like little winged warriors.

I haven’t taken a photograph of a bird recently and I can feel the withdrawal symptoms.

Here’s the most recent shot, a
manu-o-Kū, also known as a white fairy tern. It’s the ornithic symbol of Honolulu.

This flock of Terns was reeling in tight circles right in front of me over the breaking surf, staying incredibly compact, apparently reading each others minds, but they were moving so fast that composition was really difficult.

Royal Terns (Thalasseus maximus) are common warm saltwater coast birds. They are social birds, and these appear to be posing for the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #FourOrMore. I saw them on a beach in #Florida.

It's #FlyDay! I'm posting another image from a shoot last month at our local wildlife refuge. I stood beside a pond and watched as a group of #terns flew towards me before diving into the water and catching fish. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #birdsinflight

#WideOpenWings and coming right at you! A hovering tern against a deep blue summer sky is ready to dive-bomb anyone who gets closer as it protects its nearby nesting grounds! #BirdOfTheDay #birds #nature #birdphotography #bluesky #terns #EastCoastKin 🪶

Royal tern portraits taken at the Dania Beach pier. It's a popular fishing spot, and anglers offer the birds bait fish so they're very acclimated to people.

My entry for #BirdOfTheDay for the theme of #DivingForFood is of these #Inca #terns, taken last year (captive in a very spacious walk through aviary) plucking fish out of the water (and squabbling..) #birds #divingbirds #bird #diving #photography #wildlife #birdphotography #photos

The #BirdoftheDay theme is #StareDown. That's what this beautiful tern did in its flyby. They were busy over a little section of pond that must have been full of fish. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #terns #birdsinflight #HighKey

A black and white photography of a Forster's tern in mid flight with both wings extended.  A blurry tree line runs across the bottom of the frame and up the left hand side.

I'm late to the #BirdOfTheDay, but here's a black and white photo of a black and white Forster's tern I captured today for the alt theme set by Rob 😁

I’m way too tired to alt text this whole comic strip about terns. I invoke my ‘get out of alt text free’ card. We get like 5 annually, right?

1 out of every 4 birds I saw during my Australia trip was not a lifer, and this is one of them.... Whiskered Tern (Chlidonias hybridus). Lots down under, but also one of the commoner summer marsh #terns in Hungary. #BirdingAustralia

It's #Stunday and I think #terns are stunning. As I photographed these beauties while they were fishing, the early morning sun broke through the clouds and illuminated them with a nice warm color. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #birdsinflight

It's #FlyDay. And I continue to be amazed at the aerodynamics of terns. They seem destined to be among the best of all birds for flight. They are a bit difficult to photograph, but I enjoy the pursuit. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #terns #birdsinflight #HighKey

Hovering above in the bright blue summer sky, with its wings and tail straight out and its eyes looking down towards the camera, a common tern declares it will dive bomb me if I dare get closer to the roped-off nesting area set aside by the Massachusetts Audubon Society in South Dartmouth MA

For a #BirdsInFlight and #BlueSkyMonday combo, here’s a common tern pausing above me with a look that says I am getting too close to its nesting area and there will be consequences if I proceed! #birds #BirdOfTheDay #terns #nature #birdphotography #massaudubon #EastCoastKin 🪶

This beautiful little tern had its eye on breakfast. It was feeding in the shallows of our local wildlife refuge. I stood at the edge of the parking lot and watched them fish just a few feet away. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #terns #birdsinflight #HighKey #bnw

Terns. These seabirds in the family Laridae, subfamily Sterninae, have a worldwide distribution and are normally found near the sea, rivers, or wetlands. Thank you Kelvin Leong for sharing your photo taken on the coast of New Zealand. #tern #terns #bird #birds #wildlife #newzealand #nz #nature
