Elegant Tern – Signed Fine Art Print

Information about the Elegant Tern:

The Elegant Tern is a seabird belonging to the family Sternidae. It is a medium-sized bird, with a distinctive shaggy crest and a bright orange bill that points somewhat downwards. They grown to a length of about 15.4–16.5 inches (39–42 cm) with wingspan of 42 inches (107 cm). They are a common slight along the Pacific Coastline from British Columbia all the way down to nearly the tip of South America. The Elegant Tern feeds on fish, which it catches by dive bombing the water from above. It will fly over water with the beak pointing down, then dramatically plunge into water to catch its prey. Nearly of all Elegant Terns nest in one colony on Isla Rasa in the Gulf of California, Mexico.
