Least Tern

Sanctuary of Sands, Fishers Island.

Note the distinct yellow beak, white forehead and dark primaries (wing feathers) during this adult breeding time: March thru August.

PLEASE continue to kindly leash all “brigades” of dogs within Parade Grounds, welcoming the Least tern’s safe return to our Island.
