Inca Tern

What a beautiful Tern, this uniquely-plumaged bird breeds on the coasts of Peru and Chile, where I went to catch this one, lol.

  2. He would win a mustach competition...but not just that--with his wordly smile female birds must flock to him....but can he cook an omelette?

    Thank you for this visual treat!
