Witness the Elegant Flight of the Swift Tern on Dyer Island (00004021)
Description: The majestic Swift Tern, scientifically known as Sterna bergii, is a fascinating seabird that can be found along the coast of South Africa all year round. Nesting on islands such as Dyer Island, they often breed alongside other seabirds like the Hartlaub's Gull. These graceful birds primarily feed on small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks that they find in coastal waters. Watch the Swift Tern glide elegantly over the sea surface, searching for its next meal.
