Royal Tern (Thalasseus maximus)
Origin: North American coastlines
Sighted at: Higgs Beach, Key West, FL
I was up very bright and early to hang out with my sisters as they ran a 5K this past Saturday morning. In between them starting and stopping the run, I wandered onto the nearby pier, and literally stumbled into a bunch of terns! They were pretty chill about the whole situation.
