Least Tern Surprise

The wind was a challenge yesterday but we anchored our chairs in the sand and sat awhile. We were watching this one Least Tern who kept returning to a spot just a few FEET in front of us. Surprisingly she seemed to be rejecting offers of fish from eager males.  

If there is any doubt as to how well camoflauged these eggs are on the beach, take a look at the photos I took of her. We NEVER saw this egg while we were sitting there! I could not believe my eyes when I uploaded the pictures just now.
