Beautiful white tern in majestic flight (00005621)
(5)
Description: The white tern, also known as Gygis alba rothschildi, is a delicate, snow-white bird with large black eyes. Its graceful appearance looks almost fairy-like, especially when it soars majestically against the deep blue sky. These birds hunt fish by elegantly plunging into the sea. This image captures a white tern at the end of a branch, ready to embark on the next journey over the vast ocean.
