Pacific Sooty Tern\nOnychoprion fuscatus serrata\nGreat Barrier Reef, Queensland, Australia
A sooty tern is a type of bird that lives near tropical oceans and has black and white feathers with long, pointed wings. When at its nest, it may be sitting on an egg or caring for its young. The nest itself may be on a sandy beach or rocky outcrop near the water's edge. Seeing a sooty tern at its nest can be a fascinating experience for bird watchers and nature enthusiasts alike.

Sooty Tern Sterna fuscata
Part of the large colony of King Cormorants aka White-bellied Shag, Leucocarbo (atriceps) albiventer, on Bleaker Island, Falklands. Some are standing, most are brooding eggs on their nests and some birds are flying overhead, en route to gathering more nesting material or food. There is a Falklands (Brown) Skua in the foreground, watching for an egg to become available to steal. This species belongs to a taxonomically-contentious group, so may be reassigned/renamed in future.
