Throwing out a little #TernTuesday because this gorgeous guy struck a pose for me yesterday. #CaspianTern #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Because I have a year without posting anything on these #birds, I forgot today is #Ternsday or better names #TernTuesday for the #birders here ❤️🌊! (started by
@lucidillusions.in )

So, bring your old or new pics of terns!

#BirdOfTheDay alternate theme today is #blurry (birds blurred in motion) -- so here's a trio of #blurd (and one for #TernTuesday)

I need to visit the shores soon so I can have new content for #TernTuesday...

#Birds feed, in the meanwhile share your beauties!

A white bird with very pale gray on the upper wings, a short black beak, a black eye patch, and a short tail with long forks on either side flies against a pale bluish-gray sky with its wings above its back and its head looking down toward the ground. It is a bit out of focus but good enough.

On terribly windy days, with birds blowing one way and my camera the other, I'm happy to even get them in the frame. If they're recognizable, I call it a win and walk away content.

Forster's Tern

I must 'egretfully share a Gull Billed Tern for #BirdOfTheDay theme (mostly White) because it's #TernTuesday

#Birds #Photography #Nature #Wildlife #EastCoastKin

(Okay okay I might share some egret close ups too)

a common term, photographed from the front, it's head is in focus and wing span as well. there's a black cap, and the wings are dark from above. it's flying over the dock water - which is littered with plastic.

a tern, just out of focus, as it makes a swift flight. there are small ferries in the background with people working/prepping to take it out for fishing.

another photo of the same bird, just out of focus - as it flies in front of a different ferry which has large containers on board to collect fresh catch.

It's always crazy to shoot Terns! they are fast, and shooting them with a D7000 (+ Tamron 70-300)

Was looking through the archive to share some pictures for #TernTuesday

#Blurd #Birds #Photography #EastCoastKin #Nature #Wildlife

(next month planning to photograph them with the #Nikon z6iii)

Pretty sure this a tern and not a seagull. Reasonably certain its Tuesday.

#bird #birds #terntuesday

A little tern lands, fish in beak, besides its potential mate, who is already screaming in anticipation. Little terns have a yellow bill and legs, which set it apart from the other terns in the Netherlands, which have red or black bills, and although it has a black cap like most terns, it also has a pure white forehead.

Little tern in flight in bright sunlight. The small black tip of its yellow bill can be seen here.

The male little tern has dropped a small fish in flight, and is diving to catch it mid-air (it is succeeding).

The male little tern, on the left, hands over a fish to his potential mate on the right, on the beach.

Back in May on Texel, I witnessed a little tern (dwergstern) impress its mate by catching fish for her at the beach, over and over again, for at least two hours (probably more, but that's when I left). A small stream of sea water separated us and the terns did not mind me. #birds #TernTuesday

Tern with fish

Here's a Tern I saw while out walking in Norfolk. This is on the beach at RSPB Titchwell Marsh.

Least Tern at Dawn, Florida, from a few years ago for #TernTuesday

A tern in flight against a blue sky. It has a slim fish in its beak.

For #TernTuesday, here's one @shrunkenshrubbery.bsky.social took yesterday.

Lovely shot, Dave! I love a good tern, & this one doesn't disappoint! #TernTuesday

a white bird, with black beak, and black tips of wings, is flying away from the photographer - you can see cityscape and buildings in the shoreline (out of focus)

Been a while, but here's something for #TernTuesday.

Common Tern with fish in flight across the lake, with green reflections cast on the water from the trees and reeds nearby.

This little beauty wants to know if it’s still #TernTuesday? #birds

A swampy terrain with a tern flying above it, its head and neck stooping down to better observe and find insects and invertebrates above the water. The birds body, neck and head are completely lack while its tail and wings are pure white, with clear black legs, giving it some spectacular contrasts.

For #TernTuesday, a white-winged tern (witvleugelstern) on the hunt. Terns are among my favourite birds and the white-winged tern is perhaps the fanciest I've seen. This was a rare breeding pair in the Onnerpolder near Groningen in 2021: their usual populations are much further east. #birds

Fabulous adult Whiskered Tern for #terntuesday. El Hondo Spain. Some are still in summer plumage. #birds #birdphotography #terns #birdsseenin2025

Come on everyone, let's all Share/QP our captures for #TernTuesday, so everyone can see how beautiful these little birds are.
Here are some of the Common Terns at Long Nanny on the Northumberland coast.
