Royal Tern
I'm
hanging out with the Royal
Terns. I watched a pair beak-clack and then walk in circles. I think
perhaps a male was giving a female food as part of the mating behavior. Here is
their sound.
Royal tern meeting. Anna
Maria, at the northern tip of the island.
Juvenile cormorant
lets me take its photograph.
I took this photo of an osprey perched on one of the beach
volleyball posts while visiting the Coquina Beach Market
(10:00 AM until 4 PM, SUNDAYS). By the way, this is a fun market -
veggies and fruits, jewelry, art, photos, and even someone from Milan who sells
Italian pasta and sauces.
We have several resident osprey in Wildewood Springs. They
perch high in the Norfolk pines or on tall trees lining the edge of the pond.
