Caspian Terns Fishing (1 Viewer)

Today at Sabkhat Al Fasl (Jubail) Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia we watched a group of seven Caspian Terns fishing at an inland wetland area. They were being very successful in their attempts at fishing but the sun was at the wrong angle for really good photographs. I include the best few I took with one showing a fish in the beak of one bird showing that they were catching quite large fish.

Caspian Tern are a very large tern and dwarft the little Terns (which are very small terns) that were present.
