Another Great Year For Least Terns!

Uncategorized2 Comments

This year again, a small colony of Least Terns nested alongside the Sarasota Bay Black Skimmers beach colony. While being the smallest Terns in Florida, they fiercely defend their territory. There are still a few openings for the November 8th-9th 2025 Florida shorebirds & wading birds tour. Shoot me an email at steven@stevenbirdphotography.com if you want to join the fun 🙂
