Crashing into the new year like this #CaspianTern crashed into my pond in the old year. Looking forward to their return soon enough!

One small step for #CaspianTern, one giant leap for tern-kind! This was as close as I got to one of my goal shots this summer of a CATE just before it crashes down on an unsuspecting fish. Pretty close!

Caspian Terns embody perseverance and resilience to anyone lucky enough to witness their grace. A symbol of joy, hope, and new beginnings. The bird is associated with religious purity and spiritual enlightenment.

A few photos from a #CaspianTern from my summer picture backlog. My favorite of the three is the diving near contact with water, but the other two are drying off from a failed attempt look good on the CATE too!

A #CaspianTern that is either coming or going, depending on how one interprets the image.
Okay, in practice it is only going because a CATE does not come into water like this. I guess the philosophical debate must wait another day!

During the quiet of dawn, a Caspian Tern glides low over the Grand River looking for fish, wings catching the first light.
