Forster\u2019s Tern: Blackpoint Wildlife Drive, Merritt Island NWR, Titusville, Florida, January 2025 \u2014 The fishing was good along one stretch of the canal next to Blackpoint Drive on the day, almost exactly a year ago now, that I visited. I was wondering where the concentration of waders was, but as I came around a bend, there they were\u2026a mixed flock of mostly white birds. And lots of terns in the air. This is the Forster\u2019s Tern in its non-breeding plumage. Kiting terns are among the easiest and hardest of birds to catch in flight. They stand in the air on outstretched wings, but when they move, they are very fast. Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at 600mm equivalent field of view. Program with action and flight modifications.
