Some double trouble for #WorldMigratoryBirdDay 👀👀 Royal terns are a characteristic sight along the East, West and Gulf coasts. These birds aren’t just beach bums, though. They travel from Central and South America—some as far as Ecuador and Argentina—to reach their breeding grounds. Royal tern chicks leave the nest within *one* day after hatching and congregate in a group known as a crèche, which can consist of thousands of chicks. Amazingly, each royal tern parents are able to pick out their chick in the crowd, probably by recognizing its distinct call, to provide small snacks of mollusks and fish. . . . 📷: Royal terns along the Texas coast #royaltern #migratorybirdday #birding #texas #gulfcoast #wildlife #tern #beach

This Royal Tern came in 6 days ago from Sebastian Inlet State Park with an ingested fish hook. The hook was located in the ventriculus. After beginning antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications, our vet staff performed surgery yesterday to remove the hook. We see a lot of pelicans with ingested fish hooks from Sebastian Inlet due to it being a very popular fishing location, but we don’t see other species with ingested hooks, like this royal tern, as frequently. Proper disposal of fishing gear and not cutting the line if a fisherman hooks a bird (or turtle) is very important! The last image is the royal tern post surgery! Thank you to our vet staff for your amazing work!🩺 #FloridaWildlifeHospital #KeepingWildlifeWild #wildliferehab #floridawildlife #wildlifevet #royaltern #wildliferescue #WildlifeHeroes #rescuerehabrelease

An airborne Elegant Tern (Thalasseus elegans) showing off some fresh seafood to three earth-bound Royal Terns (Thalasseus maximus). The Royals made it as difficult as possible for the Elegant to land---this individual tried to land at least three times and was forced to abort each time. In the air, the Elegant was harrassed constantly by gulls hoping it would give up the meal. #terns #eleganttern #royaltern #seabirds #flightshots #birdphotography #socalbirds #lajollacove #birds #nature #naturephotography

Was able to take a long walk on the beach at Padre Island National Seashore Corpus Christi, TX in April 2024. A small group of Royal Terns were preparing to go back out to sea to dive for small fish and shrimp. This one looks like it was making the call to go as it flew out shortly after. @ollin.nature #vortexoptics #shotoniphone #digiscoping #royaltern #royalterns #terns #ternsofinstagram #padreislandnationalseashore #birding #birds #birdsofinstagram🐦 #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #naturephotography
When you get a new lens, you just have to test it. take it to your favorite National Park and get a few shots of your favorite subjects. Well I did anyway. New Nikon Z180-600mm lens, @gulfcoastcamerafl where I bought it (and I work) (photo by @jaydenlavendusky) and where I took it, Gulf Island National Seashore/Ft Pickens. #newlensfeeling #nikonZ8 #NikonZ180-600 #gulfcoastcamerafl #osprey #royaltern #sandwichtern #otter #digginmylens #NPS #nikon

Charrán Real (Thalasseus máximus), Royal Tern Adulto no reproductor El Charrán Real, conocido también como Gaviotín Real o Royal Tern, se destaca como la segunda especie más grande entre los charranes, siendo superado únicamente por el Charrán Caspio. Su distintivo pico largo y delgado exhibe tonalidades que varían entre el naranja y el amarillo. En comparación con el Gaviotín Elegante (Thalasseus elegans), tanto su cuerpo como su pico muestran una notable robustez. 🏔🦜🏜🦤🌿🌲🦩🌴⛰ #natgeo #Thalasseusmaximus #CharranReal #RoyalTern #Thalasseus #seabirds #shorebirds #migratorybirds #waderquest #whsrnrhrap #spaceforshorebirds #shorebirds_habitat #shorebirdmigration #shorebirdsphotography #espacionegativo #best_birds_planet #best_birds_of_ig #nature_worldwide_birds #birds_private #1birdshot #birdsonearth #feather_perfection #bird_intuition #your_best_birds #bestbirdshots #endemicbirds #canonrf800mmf11 #canonrf800 #fasuego @natgeo @bestbirdshots @whsrn_rhrap @pilpilen_chile @nycploverproject @bird_intuition @feather_perfection @birdsonearth @birds.nature @bird_brilliance @best_birds_photography @birds_adored @best_birds_of_ig @birds_private @canonrp @canonusa

The one that almost got away! I watched this fish escape the beak of a Royal Tern three times in mid air, each time being recaptured. Being an empath I, of course, was rooting for the fish, but alas….

The Royal Terns are finally in their breeding plumage and courting has begun on Little St Simons !! Yesterday we got an awesome show of a male Royal Tern carrying around an Atlantic Menhaden in hopes of seducing a lucky lady, but instead, he was chased around by 20 other hungry Royal Terns !!! #royaltern #tern #seabird #breedingplumage

Courtship among Royal Terns involves a feeding ritual where the male brings a fish offering to a female which she will accept (from the mate of her choice) or decline. This serves as an indicator that the male bringing a fish meal to attract a potential mate will be a good provider for the chicks. It’s all about female choice in the Royal Tern world! In this instance the male was rejected by this female. He offered his fish to 2 or 3 other girls who also rejected him. he took his fish to the water... washed it off and flew to the other group of Royals 100 yards away to try again. #birds #birding #bird #nature #birdphotography #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #birdwatching #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #birdlovers #instagood #photography #beautiful #captures #perfection #birdlife #naturelovers #bestbirdshot #love #royaltern #photography #sonyphotography #animals #roamflorida #birdingphotography #photooftheday #happy #follow
